On tensor rank of conditional probability tables in Bayesian networks
A difficult task in modeling with Bayesian networks is the elicitation of numerical parameters of Bayesian networks. A large number of parameters is needed to specify a conditional probability table (CPT) that has a larger parent set. In this paper we show that, most CPTs from real applications of Bayesian networks can actually be very well approximated by tables that require substantially less...
متن کاملUser Interface Tools for Navigation in Conditional Probability Tables and Elicitation of Probabilities in Bayesian Networks
Elicitation of probabilities is one of the most laborious tasks in building decision-theoretic models, and one that has so far received only moderate attention in decision-theoretic sys tems. We propose a set of user interface tools for graphical probabilistic models, fo cusing on two aspects of probability elici tation: (1) navigation through conditional probability tables and (2) interacti...
متن کاملLearning Structured Bayesian Networks: Combining Abstraction Hierarchies and Tree-Structured Conditional Probability Tables
ion hierarchies are a commonly used form of knowledge that is intended to capture useful and meaningful groupings of feature values in a particular domain. An attributevalue hierarchy (AVH) is essentially an IS-A hierarchy for categorical feature values. The leaves of the AVH describe base-level values, and the interior nodes represent abstractions of base-level values. Each abstract value corr...

متن کاملEstimating age conditional probability of developing disease from surveillance data
Fay, Pfeiffer, Cronin, Le, and Feuer (Statistics in Medicine 2003; 22; 1837-1848) developed a formula to calculate the age-conditional probability of developing a disease for the first time (ACPDvD) for a hypothetical cohort. The novelty of the formula of Fay et al (2003) is that one need not know the rates of first incidence of disease per person-years alive and disease-free, but may input the...
