SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"The second edition of this bestseller provides a practical and accessible introduction to the main concepts, foundation, and applications of Bayesian networks. This edition contains a new chapter on Bayesian network classifiers and a new section on object-oriented Bayesian networks, along with new applications and case studies. It includes a new section that addresses foundational problems with causal discovery and Markov blanket discovery and a new section that covers methods of evaluating causal discovery programs. The book also offers more coverage on the uses of causal interventions to understand and reason with causal Bayesian networks. Supplemental materials are available on the book's website"--Provided by publisher
