| Abstract | The traditional message passing algorithm was originally developed by Pearl in the 1980s for computing exact inference solutions for discrete polytree Bayesian networks (BN). When a loop is present in the network, propagating messages are not exact, but the loopy algorithm usually converges and provides good approximate solutions. However, in general hybrid BNs, the message representation and manipulation for arbitrary continuous variable and message propagation between different types of variables are still open problems. The novelty of the work presented here is to propose a framework to compute, propagate, and integrate the messages for hybrid models. First, we combine unscented transformation and Pearl's message passing algorithm to deal with the arbitrary functional relationships between continuous variables in the network. For the general hybrid model, we partition the network into separate parts by introducing the concept of interface node. We then apply different algorithms for each subnetwork. Finally we integrate the information through the channel of interface nodes and then estimate the posterior distributions for all hidden variables. The numerical experiments show that the algorithm works well for nonlinear hybrid BNs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
