 dge)

UID:TALK8938@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Philip Sterne
DESCRIPTION:Another tutorial session this time focusing on Belief Propagat
 ion.  I suggest reading Chapter 8 from Bishop's Pattern Recognition and Ma
 chine Learning \n(conveniently available online "here":http://research.mic
 rosoft.com/%7Ecmbishop/PRML/Bishop-PRML-sample.pdf )\n\nIt is a good idea 
 to have a simple network to keep things concrete so I suggest looking at t
 he "Asia" Bayesian network (first introduced by Lauritzen and Spiegelhalte
 r - 1999) available  "here":http://web.archive.org/web/20041211154230/http
 ://anc.ed.ac.uk/~dbarber/pmr/pmr_ass1.pdf (which also shows that nothing e
 ver dies on the web!)
