Constructing Bayesian Network in a Changing World
نویسندگان
چکیده
Although the process of decision-making has been investigated for centuries, only in the last few decades have investigators systematically addressed how decisions are made in a dynamic, real-world environment. One of the most daunting challenges faced by decision support systems is a perpetual change in their environment. Existing decision support methodologies, tools, and frameworks are often difficult to scale up and adapt to changing knowledge. In this paper, a framework that constructs a decision model from knowledge base according to the changes in environment is presented. The generated Bayesian network can be changed as the situation evolves. This paper describes the knowledge representation and model construction process. Bayesian networks combination method is also discussed in details.

Anytime Intention Recognition via Incremental Bayesian Network Reconstruction
This paper presents an anytime algorithm for incremental intention recognition in a changing world. The algorithm is performed by dynamically constructing the intention recognition model on top of a prior domain knowledge base. The model is occasionally reconfigured by situating itself in the changing world and removing newly found out irrelevant intentions. Some approaches to knowledge base re...
متن کاملGrid-Enabled Bayesian Network
Bayesian network has been a successful tool in the decision support systems. In the changing world, the decision making demands adaptive Bayesian methods that are composed of Bayesian inferential and learning approaches. To achieve this goal, we propose a kind of grid-enabled Bayesian networks that intend to gridify Bayesian inferential and learning methods when the advanced grid computing tech...
متن کاملA Framework to Learn Bayesian Network from Changing, Multiple-Source Biomedical Data
Structure learning in Bayesian network is a big issue. Many efforts have tried to solve this problem and quite a few algorithms have been proposed. However, when we attempt to apply the existing methods to microarray data, there are three main challenges: 1) there are many variables in the data set, 2) the sample size is small, and 3) microarray data are changing from experiment to experiment a...
متن کاملInformation versus reward in a changing world
How do people solve the explore-exploit trade-off in a changing environment? In this paper we present experimental evidence in an “observe or bet” task, comparing human behavior in a changing environment to their behavior in an unchanging one. We present a Bayesian analysis of the observe or bet task and show that human judgments are consistent with that analysis. However, we find that people’s...
متن کاملThe Bounded Bayesian
The ideal Bayesian agent reasons from a global probability model, but real agents are restricted to simplified models which they know to be adequate only in restricted circumstances. Very little formal theory has been developed to help fallibly rational agents manage the process of constructing and revising small world models. The goal of this paper is to present a theoretical framework for ana...
