Bayesian networks for continuous values and uncertainty in the learning process
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a method for Bayesian networks that handles uncertainty and discretization of continuous variables when learning the networks from a database of cases. The database is reorganised in a new form of representation called reduced database where data are treated as distributions on symbolic values. K e y w o r d s : Bayesian networks, uncertainty, knowledge representation, fuzzy partition.

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 ...

متن کاملConstruction cost estimation of spherical storage tanks: artificial neural networks and hybrid regression—GA algorithms
One of the most important processes in the early stages of construction projects is to estimate the cost involved. This process involves a wide range of uncertainties, which make it a challenging task. Because of unknown issues, using the experience of the experts or looking for similar cases are the conventional methods to deal with cost estimation. The current study presents data-driven metho...

One of the important challenges in Graphical models is the problem of dealing with the uncertainties in the problem. Among graphical networks, fuzzy cognitive map is only capable of modeling fuzzy uncertainty and the Bayesian network is only capable of modeling probabilistic uncertainty. In many real issues, we are faced with both fuzzy and probabilistic uncertainties. In these cases, the propo...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Inference and Learning in Bayesian Networks
Bayesian networks (BNs) are modern tools for modeling phenomena in dynamic and static systems and are used in different subjects such as disease diagnosis, weather forecasting, decision making and clustering. A BN is a graphical-probabilistic model which represents causal relations among random variables and consists of a directed acyclic graph and a set of conditional probabilities. Structure...
