Class BayesPm

java.lang.Object
edu.cmu.tetrad.bayes.BayesPm
All Implemented Interfaces:
VariableSource, Pm, TetradSerializable, Serializable
public final class BayesPm extends Object implements Pm, VariableSource
Implements a discrete Bayes parametric model--that is, a DAG together with a map from the nodes in the graph to a set of discrete variables, specifying the number of categories for each variable and the name of each category for each variable. This is all the information one needs to know in order to determine the parametric form of a Bayes net up to actual values of parameters. Specific values for the Bayes net are stored in a BayesIM object (see).

  • Constructor Details

    • BayesPm

      public BayesPm(Graph graph)
      Construct a new BayesPm using the given DAG, assigning each variable two values named "value1" and "value2" unless nodes are discrete variables with categories already defined.

    • BayesPm

      public BayesPm(Graph graph, BayesPm oldBayesPm)
      Constructs a new BayesPm using a given DAG, using as much information from the old BayesPm as possible.

    • BayesPm

      public BayesPm(Graph graph, int lowerBound, int upperBound)
      Constructs a new BayesPm from the given DAG, assigning each variable a random number of values between lowerBound and upperBound. Uses a fixed number of values if lowerBound == upperBound. The values are named "value1" ... "valuen".

    • BayesPm

      public BayesPm(Graph graph, BayesPm oldBayesPm, int lowerBound, int upperBound)
      Constructs a new BayesPm from the given DAG, using as much information from the old BayesPm as possible. For variables not in the old BayesPm, assigns each variable a random number of values between lowerBound and upperBound. Uses a fixed number of values if lowerBound == upperBound. The values are named "value1" ... "valuen".
