Combining Bayesian Networks with Higher-Order Data Representations

چکیده
This paper introduces Higher-Order Bayesian Networks, a probabilistic reasoning formalism which combines the efficient reasoning mechanisms of Bayesian Networks with the expressive power of higher-order logics. We discuss how the proposed graphical model is used in order to define a probability distribution semantics over particular families of higher-order terms. We give an example of the application of our method on the Mutagenesis domain, a popular dataset from the Inductive Logic Programming community, showing how we employ probabilistic inference and model learning for the construction of a probabilistic classifier based on Higher-Order Bayesian Networks.

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...
متن کاملEmbedding Bayesian Networks in Sensor Grids
In their simplest form, sensors are transducers that convert physical phenomena into electrical signals. By combining recent innovations in wireless technology, distributed computing, and transducer design, grids of sensors equipped with wireless communication can monitor large geographical areas. However, just getting the data is not enough. In order to react intelligently to the dynamics of t...
متن کاملRobust Opponent Modeling in Real-Time Strategy Games using Bayesian Networks
Opponent modeling is a key challenge in Real-Time Strategy (RTS) games as the environment is adversarial in these games, and the player cannot predict the future actions of her opponent. Additionally, the environment is partially observable due to the fog of war. In this paper, we propose an opponent model which is robust to the observation noise existing due to the fog of war. In order to cope...
متن کاملLearning failure-free PRISM programs
First-order logic can be used to represent relations amongst objects. Probabilistic graphical models encode uncertainty over propositional data. Following the demand of combining the advantages of both representations, probabilistic logic programs provide the ability to encode uncertainty over relational data. PRISM is a probabilistic logic programming formalism based on the distribution semant...
متن کاملImplementation of Traditional (S-R)-Based PM Method with Bayesian Inference
In order to perform Preventive Maintenance (PM), two approaches have evolved in the literature. The traditional approach is based on the use of statistical and reliability analysis of equipment failure. Under statistical-reliability (S-R)-based PM, the objective of achieving the minimum total cost is pursued by establishing fixed PM intervals, which are statistically optimal, at which to replac...
