Likelihoods and Parameter Priors for Bayesian Networks

David Heckerman, Dan Geiger

We develop simple methods for constructing likelihoods and parameter priors for learning about the parameters and structure of a Bayesian network. In particular, we introduce sever…

Parameter Priors for Directed Acyclic Graphical Models and the Characterization of Several Probability Distributions

Dan Geiger, David Heckerman

We develop simple methods for constructing parameter priors for model choice among Directed Acyclic Graphical (DAG) models. In particular, we introduce several assumptions that per…

Dependence and Relevance: A probabilistic view

Dan Geiger, David Heckerman

We examine three probabilistic concepts related to the sentence "two variables have no bearing on each other". We explore the relationships between these three concepts and establi…

Accurate Liability Estimation Improves Power in Ascertained Case Control Studies

Omer Weissbrod, Christoph Lippert, Dan Geiger +1

Linear mixed models (LMMs) have emerged as the method of choice for confounded genome-wide association studies. However, the performance of LMMs in non-randomly ascertained case-co…

Random Algorithms for the Loop Cutset Problem

Ann Becker, Reuven Bar-Yehuada, Dan Geiger

We show how to find a minimum loop cutset in a Bayesian network with high probability. Finding such a loop cutset is the first step in Pearl's method of conditioning for inference.…
