Gated Bayesian Networks

چکیده

This paper introduces a new probabilistic graphical model called gated Bayesian network (GBN). This model evolved from the need to represent real world processes that include several distinct phases. In essence a GBN is a model that combines several Bayesian networks (BN) in such a manner that they may be active or inactive during queries to the model. We use objects called gates to combine BNs, and to activate and deactivate them when predefined logical statements are satisfied. These statements are based on combinations of posterior probabilities of the variables in the BNs. Although GBN is a new formalism there are features of GBNs that are similar to other formalisms and research, including influence diagrams, context-specific independence and structural adaptation.

Learning Gated Bayesian Networks for Algorithmic Trading

Abstract. Gated Bayesian networks (GBNs) are a recently introduced extension of Bayesian networks that aims to model dynamical systems consisting of several distinct phases. In this paper, we present an algorithm for semi-automatic learning of GBNs. We use the algorithm to learn GBNs that output buy and sell decisions for use in algorithmic trading systems. We show how using the learnt GBNs can...

Bayesian Optimisation of Gated Bayesian Networks for Algorithmic Trading

Gated Bayesian networks (GBNs) are an extension of Bayesian networks that aim to model systems that have distinct phases. In this paper, we aim to use GBNs to output buy and sell decisions for use in algorithmic trading systems. These systems may have several parameters that require tuning, and assessing the performance of these systems as a function of their parameters cannot be expressed in c...

A Bayesian Networks Approach to Reliability Analysis of a Launch Vehicle Liquid Propellant Engine

This paper presents an extension of Bayesian networks (BN) applied to reliability analysis of an open gas generator cycle Liquid propellant engine (OGLE) of launch vehicles. There are several methods for system reliability analysis such as RBD, FTA, FMEA, Markov Chains, and etc. But for complex systems such as LV, they are not all efficiently applicable due to failure dependencies between compo...

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 ...
