The Application of Bayesian Belief Networks

چکیده

The analysis of nominal data is often reduced to accumulation and description. Bayesian methods offer a possibility to analyse nominal data in a more sophisticated way. The possibility to indicate a structure via graphical representation, where variables are nodes and relationships are edges, enriches this method and makes it a powerful tool for data analysis. In this paper, an overview on Bayesian methods is given, the underlying rule is presented and some specialities will be discussed. Bayesian belief networks are described in brief and their potential to use them in case of uncertainty is presented. This includes not only the methods, but also possible applications in this context.

A Surface Water Evaporation Estimation Model Using Bayesian Belief Networks with an Application to the Persian Gulf

Evaporation phenomena is a effective climate component on water resources management and has special importance in agriculture. In this paper, Bayesian belief networks (BBNs) as a non-linear modeling technique provide an evaporation estimation  method under uncertainty. As a case study, we estimated the surface water evaporation of the Persian Gulf and worked with a dataset of observations ...

بررسی تأثیر برخی شاخص‌های کیفیت آب زیرزمینی بر بیابان‌زایی اراضی دشت سگزی اصفهان با استفاده از Bayesian Belief Networks

This paper aimed to assess the severity of desertification in Segzi plain located in the eastern part of Isfahan city, focusing on groundwater quality criteria used in MEDALUS model. Bayesian Belief networks (BBNs) were also used to convert MEDALUS model into a predictive, cause and effects model. Different techniques such as Kriging and IDW were applied to water quality data of 12 groundwater ...

Project Portfolio Risk Response Selection Using Bayesian Belief Networks

Risk identification, impact assessment, and response planning constitute three building blocks of project risk management. Correspondingly, three types of interactions could be envisioned between risks, between impacts of several risks on a portfolio component, and between several responses. While the interdependency of risks is a well-recognized issue, the other two types of interactions remai...

A Probabilistic Model for COPD Diagnosis and Phenotyping Using Bayesian Networks

Introduction: This research was meant to provide a model for COPD diagnosis and to classify the cases into phenotypes; General COPD, Chronic bronchitis, Emphysema, and the Asthmatic COPD using a Bayesian Network (BN). Methods: The model was constructed through developing the Bayesian Network structure and instantiating the parameters for each of the variables. In order to validate the achiev...
