in this research, an iterative approach is employed to recognize and classify control chart patterns. to do this, by taking new observations on the quality characteristic under consideration, the maximum likelihood estimator of pattern parameters is first obtained and then the probability of each pattern is determined. then using bayes’ rule, probabilities are updated recursively. finally, when...

Establishing an accurate diagnosis is crucial in everyday clinical practice. It forms the starting point for decision-making, instance regarding treatment options or further testing. In this context, clinicians have to deal with probabilities (instead of certainties) that are often hard quantify. During diagnostic process, move from probability disease before testing (prior pretest probability)...

This paper has two aims. First, we investigate how often people make choices conforming to Bayes' rule when natural sampling is applied. Second, we show that using Bayes' rule is not necessary to make choices satisfying Bayes' rule. Simpler methods, even fallacious heuristics, might prescribe correct choices reasonably often under specific circumstances. We considered elementary situations with...

A novel relational learning approach that tightly integrates the naı̈ve Bayes learning scheme with the inductive logic programming rule-learner FOIL is presented. In contrast to previous combinations that have employed naı̈ve Bayes only for post-processing the rule sets, the presented approach employs the naı̈ve Bayes criterion to guide its search directly. The proposed technique is implemented in...
