Programming Bayesian Network Solutions with Netica
Owen Woodberry and Steven Mascaro
Provides an introduction to programming Bayesian Networks in Java with Netica. Assumes minimal programming experience and a basic understanding of BNs.
Bayesian Artificial Intelligence
Kevin B. Korb and Ann E. Nicholson
Updated and expanded, Bayesian Artificial Intelligence, Second Edition provides a practical and accessible introduction to the main concepts, foundation, and applications of Bayesian networks. It focuses on both the causal discovery of networks and Bayesian inference procedures. Adopting a causal interpretation of Bayesian networks, the authors discuss the use of Bayesian networks for causal modeling. They also draw on their own applied research to illustrate various applications of the technology.
