Causal Inference with Bayesian Networks
By :
This chapter builds on the results from Chapter 6. It continues with inference by belief propagation with a join tree representation of the probabilistic graphical models of Bayesian and Markov networks (MN). The algorithm for inference with join tree clustering and the building of the clique tables are formally described. We demonstrate with examples how to perform probabilistic inference tasks step-by-step by belief propagation with a join tree. In a practice section using Python, we show in detail how to perform inference tasks with join tree clustering on a practical fault diagnosis in a digital circuit example. We also walk through the implementations in Python using the pgmpy library, a powerful tool for probabilistic graphical models.
In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
