....search for the best structure and is therefore computationally very expensive and not directly applicable to data mining applications. In this paper we pursue a constraint based approach similar to the ones in [Wermuth and Lauritzen 1983, Fung and Crawford 1990, Spirtes et al. 1993, Suzuki 1996, Cheng et al. 1997] The basic idea of those algorithms is to derive a set of CIDSs from the data without taking into account the Bayesian network structure. The Bayesian network is then constructed from the CIDSs in a later step. This is done in standard algorithms by removing an edge in the Bayesian network ....

The numbering of the variables is chosen as in [Cheng et al. 1997]. in [Spirtes et al. 1993] it is understood that this implies a (conditional) dependence. 4.2 RULES For each given CIS of the form I(a; bjS) with D(a; bjS 0 ) 8S 0 ae S the proposed Necessary Path Condition requires the absence of the edge [a; b] and the presence of the paths between a ....

....independence relationships among the nodes, according to the concept of d separation ( 22] This sug gests learning the BN structure by identifying the conditional independence relationships among the nodes. These algorithms are referred as CI based algorithms or constraint based algorithms ( 23][1]) Friedman et al. 1997) show theoretically that the general scoring based methods may result in poor classifiers since a good classifier maximizes a different function viz. classification accuracy. Greiner et al. 1997) reach the same conclusion, albeit via a different analysis. Moreover, ....

....node 32 or 34 is instantiated. It may suggest that the relationship between this pair of nodes can be expressed through other dependency relationships. The result on dataset3 also missed two other edges; however, this is due to the fact that 12 32 and 21 31 are actually independent in dataset3 [Cheng et al. 1997]. The independence between 21 and 31 also causes an extra un oriented edge 22 31. From these tables, we can see that our results are very encouraging. The algorithm has also been successfully implemented in several real world applications. One of them is a telecommunication fault diagnosis system ....

....[Singh and Valtorta, 1995] do not require node ordering. Other algorithms [Cooper and Herskovits, 1992; Herskovits, 1991; Suzuki, 1996; Wermuth and Lauritzen, 1983; Srinivas et al. 1990] deal with a rather special case where node ordering is known. In this special case, our simplified algorithm [Cheng et al. 1997] require O N ( 2 times of CI tests and is correct when the underlying model is DAG faithful. On the three data sets of ALARM network used in this paper, the simplified algorithm in this special case runs 25 faster and constructs the network with fewer errors than that in the general ....
