Learning the Structure of Dynamic Probabilistic Networks

Nir Friedman, Kevin Murphy, Stuart Russell

Dynamic probabilistic networks are a compact representation of complex stochastic processes. In this paper we examine how to learn the structure of a DPN from data. We extend struc…

A Variational Approximation for Bayesian Networks with Discrete and Continuous Latent Variables

Kevin Murphy

We show how to use a variational approximation to the logistic function to perform approximate inference in Bayesian networks containing discrete nodes with continuous parents. Ess…

Rao-Blackwellised Particle Filtering for Dynamic Bayesian Networks

Arnaud Doucet, Nando de Freitas, Kevin Murphy +1

Particle filters (PFs) are powerful sampling-based inference/learning algorithms for dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs). They allow us to treat, in a principled way, any type of prob…

The Factored Frontier Algorithm for Approximate Inference in DBNs

Kevin Murphy, Yair Weiss

The Factored Frontier (FF) algorithm is a simple approximate inferencealgorithm for Dynamic Bayesian Networks (DBNs). It is very similar tothe fully factorized version of the Boyen…
