A Generalization of the Noisy-Or Model
نویسنده
چکیده
The Noisy-Or model is convenient for de scribing a class of uncertain relationships in Bayesian networks [Pearl 1988]. Pearl describes the Noisy-Or model for Boolean variables. Here we generalize the model to nary input and output variables and to ar bitrary functions other than the Boolean OR function. This generalization is a useful modeling aid for construction of Bayesian networks. We illustrate with some examples including digital circuit di agnosis and network reliability analysis.

A method to solve the problem of missing data, outlier data and noisy data in order to improve the performance of human and information interaction
Abstract Purpose: Errors in data collection and failure to pay attention to data that are noisy in the collection process for any reason cause problems in data-based analysis and, as a result, wrong decision-making. Therefore, solving the problem of missing or noisy data before processing and analysis is of vital importance in analytical systems. The purpose of this paper is to provide a metho...
متن کاملA generalization of the noisy - or model to multivalued parent variables ∗
In this paper we propose a generalization of the noisy-or model to multivalued parent variables. Albeit the proposed generalization is more restrictive than previous proposals, it has several nice properties. In this paper we suggest a method for learning this model and report results of experiments on the Reuters text classification data.
متن کاملAn Ensemble Classification Model for the Diagnosis of Breast Cancer Using Stacked Generalization
Introduction: Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer whose incidence has increased dramatically in recent years. In order to diagnose this disease, many parameters must be taken into consideration and mistakes are possible due to human errors or environmental factors. For this reason, in recent decades, Artificial Intelligence has been used by medical practitioners to diagnose ...
متن کاملA generalization of Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) using one-by-one dependency between sequences
The Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) can be poor at capturing dependency between observations because of the statistical assumptions it makes. To overcome this limitation, the dependency between residues in a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) which is the representative of a PHMM can be combined with the PHMM. Based on the fact that sequences appearing in the final MSA are written based on th...
متن کاملA Novel Method for Detection of Epilepsy in Short and Noisy EEG Signals Using Ordinal Pattern Analysis
Introduction: In this paper, a novel complexity measure is proposed to detect dynamical changes in nonlinear systems using ordinal pattern analysis of time series data taken from the system. Epilepsy is considered as a dynamical change in nonlinear and complex brain system. The ability of the proposed measure for characterizing the normal and epileptic EEG signals when the signal is short or is...
