Chain Graphs and Directed Acyclic Graphs Improved by Equivalence Classes and their Essential Graphs

Angel GARRIDO Departamento de Matemáticas Fundamentales Facultad de Ciencias, UNED, Madrid, Spain Abstract: There exists the possibility to improve the efficiency of Bayesian Network learning procedures, by selecting as search space the equivalence classes of Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs), or the more general of Chain Graphs (CGs), and from them …

The Influence of Experimental Designs on the Performance of Surrogate Model Based Costly Global Optimization Solvers

Nils-Hassan QUTTINEH, Kenneth HOLMSTRÖM Dedicated to Dr. N. Andrei on the occasion of his 60th birthday Abstract: When dealing with costly objective functions in optimization, one good alternative is to use a surrogate model approach. A common feature for all such methods is the need of an initial set of …
