Staged Mixture Modelling and Boosting
Christopher Meek, Bo Thiesson, David Heckerman
In this paper, we introduce and evaluate a data-driven staged mixture modeling technique for building density, regression, and classification models. Our basic approach is to seque…
Large-Sample Learning of Bayesian Networks is NP-Hard
David Maxwell Chickering, Christopher Meek, David Heckerman
In this paper, we provide new complexity results for algorithms that learn discrete-variable Bayesian networks from data. Our results apply whenever the learning algorithm uses a s…
ARMA Time-Series Modeling with Graphical Models
Bo Thiesson, David Maxwell Chickering, David Heckerman +1
We express the classic ARMA time-series model as a directed graphical model. In doing so, we find that the deterministic relationships in the model make it effectively impossible t…
Joint discovery of haplotype blocks and complex trait associations from SNP sequences
Nebojsa Jojic, Vladimir Jojic, David Heckerman
Haplotypes, the global patterns of DNA sequence variation, have important implications for identifying complex traits. Recently, blocks of limited haplotype diversity have been dis…
