Probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) are a rich framework for encoding probability distributions over complex domains: joint (multivariate) distributions over large numbers of random variables that ...

In systems that exhibit artificial intelligence (AI), an agent at its centre has to learn and represent a model of its environment, reason about it, and decide on its actions. A possible approach to ...

Bayesian networks, also known as Bayes nets, belief networks, or decision networks, are a powerful tool for understanding and reasoning about complex systems under uncertainty. They are essentially ...

We know that correlation does not imply causation, but careful analyses of correlations are often our only way to quantify cause and effect in domains ranging from healthcare to education. This ...

What Is A Probabilistic Model? A probabilistic model is a statistical tool that accounts for randomness or uncertainty when predicting future events. Instead of giving a definitive answer, it ...
