InstantiableFromParameterSet, NormalizableScoringFunction, ScoringFunction, Storable, Cloneable
Direct Known Subclasses:
MutableMarkovModelScoringFunction

public class BayesianNetworkScoringFunction
extends AbstractNormalizableScoringFunction
implements InstantiableFromParameterSet

This class implements a scoring function that is a moral directed graphical model, i.e. a moral Bayesian network. This implementation also comprises well known specializations of Bayesian networks like Markov models of arbitrary order (including weight array matrix models (WAM) and position weight matrices (PWM)) or Bayesian trees. Different structures can be achieved by using the corresponding Measure, e.g. InhomogeneousMarkov for Markov models of arbitrary order.

This scoring function can be used in any ScoreClassifier, e.g. in a MSPClassifier to learn the parameters of the ScoringFunction using maximum conditional likelihood.
