Edward and Bayesian network #873

Open jianfeidahai opened 6 years ago

jianfeidahai commented 6 years ago

I want to build a disease prediction model with Bayesian network using edward. But I can't find a example or tutorial. Can you help me?

gitathrun commented 6 years ago

There are few example in the forum, but there are still some issues about using Edward for Bayesian network inference such as uncertainty, robustness.

I saw you already forked my example, try Dr. Tucci's example as well, we are both looking into this topic and the problem.

Thank you very much. Where can I find the Dr. Tucci's example? Can you give me a link?

recently we have a good example on how to learn the parameters: https://discourse.edwardlib.org/t/parameter-learning-with-simple-bayesian-network-pymc3-vs-edward-edward-posteriors-not-converging-around-correct-parameter-values/653
