چکیده
This paper discuses multiple Bayesian networks representation paradigms for encoding asymmetric independence assertions. We offer three contributions: (1) an inference mechanism that makes explicit use of asymmetric independence to speed up computations, (2) a simplified definition of similarity networks and extensions of their theory, and (3) a generalized representation schexne that encodes more types of asymmetric independence assertions than do similarity networks.

Load-Frequency Control: a GA based Bayesian Networks Multi-agent System
Bayesian Networks (BN) provides a robust probabilistic method of reasoning under uncertainty. They have been successfully applied in a variety of real-world tasks but they have received little attention in the area of load-frequency control (LFC). In practice, LFC systems use proportional-integral controllers. However since these controllers are designed using a linear model, the nonlinearities...
متن کاملReasoning in Reference Games: Individual- vs. Population-Level Probabilistic Modeling
Recent advances in probabilistic pragmatics have achieved considerable success in modeling speakers' and listeners' pragmatic reasoning as probabilistic inference. However, these models are usually applied to population-level data, and so implicitly suggest a homogeneous population without individual differences. Here we investigate potential individual differences in Theory-of-Mind related dep...
متن کاملA Case Study in Integrating Probabilistic Decision Making and Learning in a Symbolic Cognitive Architecture: Soar Plays Dice
One challenge for cognitive architectures is to effectively use different forms of knowledge and learning. We present a case study of Soar agents that play a multiplayer dice game, in which probabilistic reasoning and heuristic symbolic knowledge appear to play a central role. We develop and evaluate a collection of agents that use different combinations of probabilistic decision making, heuris...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Bayesian Classifier Approach for Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Prognosis
Basically, medical diagnosis problems are the most effective component of treatment policies. Recently, significant advances have been formed in medical diagnosis fields using data mining techniques. Data mining or Knowledge Discovery is searching large databases to discover patterns and evaluate the probability of next occurrences. In this paper, Bayesian Classifier is used as a Non-linear dat...

متن کاملFrom Weighted to Unweighted Model Counting
The recent surge of interest in reasoning about probabilistic graphical models has led to the development of various techniques for probabilistic reasoning. Of these, techniques based on weighted model counting are particularly interesting since they can potentially leverage recent advances in unweighted model counting and in propositional satisfiability solving. In this paper, we present a new...
