1 Cooperating Intelligent Systems Bayesian networks Chapter 14, AIMA

2 Inference Inference in the statistical setting means computing probabilities for different outcomes to be true given the information We need an efficient method for doing this, which is more powerful than the naïve Bayes model.

3 Bayesian networks A Bayesian network is a directed graph in which each node is annotated with quantitative probability information: 1.A set of random variables, {X 1,X 2,X 3,...}, makes up the nodes of the network. 2.A set of directed links connect pairs of nodes, parent  child 3.Each node X i has a conditional probability distribution P(X i | Parents(X i )). 4.The graph is a directed acyclic graph (DAG).

5 The alarm network Alarm BurglaryEarthquake JohnCalls MaryCalls Burglar alarm responds to both earthquakes and burglars. Two neighbors: John and Mary, who have promised to call you when the alarm goes off. John always calls when there’s an alarm, and sometimes when there’s not an alarm. Mary sometimes misses the alarms (she likes loud music).

10 Bayes network node is a function AB C A BN node is a conditional distribution function Inputs = Parent values Output = distribution over values Any type of function from values to distributions.

11 Example: The alarm network Alarm BurglaryEarthquake JohnCalls MaryCalls P(B=b) 0.001 P(E=e) 0.002 AP(J=j) a0.90 ¬a¬a 0.05 AP(M=m) a0.70 ¬a¬a 0.01 BEP(A=a) be0.95 b ¬e¬e 0.94 ¬b¬b e0.29 ¬b¬b ¬e¬e 0.001 Note: Each number in the tables represents a boolean distribution. Hence there is a distribution output for every input.

12 Example: The alarm network Alarm BurglaryEarthquake JohnCalls MaryCalls P(B=b) 0.001 P(E=e) 0.002 AP(J=j) a0.90 ¬a¬a 0.05 AP(M=m) a0.70 ¬a¬a 0.01 BEP(A=a) be0.95 b ¬e¬e 0.94 ¬b¬b e0.29 ¬b¬b ¬e¬e 0.001 Probability distribution for ”no earthquake, no burglary, but alarm, and both Mary and John make the call”

13 Meaning of Bayesian network The general chain rule (always true): The Bayesian network chain rule: The BN is a correct representation of the domain iff each node is conditionally independent of its predecessors, given its parents.

14 The alarm network Alarm BurglaryEarthquake JohnCalls MaryCalls The fully correct alarm network might look something like the figure. The Bayesian network (red) assumes that some of the variables are independent (or that the dependecies can be neglected since they are very weak). The correctness of the Bayesian network of course depends on the validity of these assumptions. Alarm BurglaryEarthquake JohnCalls MaryCalls It is this sparse connection structure that makes the BN approach feasible (~linear growth in complexity rather than exponential)

15 How construct a BN? Add nodes in causal order (”causal” determined from expertize). Determine conditional independence using either (or all) of the following semantics: –Blocking/d-separation rule –Non-descendant rule –Markov blanket rule –Experience/your beliefs

16 Path blocking & d-separation Intuitively, knowledge about Serum Calcium influences our belief about Cancer, if we don’t know the value of Cancer, which in turn influences our belief about Lung Tumour, etc. However, if we are given the value of Cancer (i.e. C= true or false), then knowledge of Serum Calcium will not tell us anything about Lung Tumour that we don’t already know. We say that Cancer d-separates (direction-dependent separation) Serum Calcium and Lung Tumour. Cancer Serum Calcium Lung Tumour Genetic Damage

17 Some definitions of BN (from Wikipedia) 1.X is a Bayesian network with respect to G if its joint probability density function can be written as a product of the individual density functions, conditional on their parent variables: X = {X 1, X 2,..., X N } is a set of random variables G = (V,E) is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) of vertices (V) and edges (E)

18 Some definitions of BN (from Wikipedia) 2.X is a Bayesian network with respect to G if it satisfies the local Markov property; each variable is conditionally independent of its non-descendants given its parent variables: X = {X 1, X 2,..., X N } is a set of random variables G = (V,E) is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) of vertices (V) and edges (E) Note:

19 Non-descendants A node is conditionally independent of its non-descendants ( Z ij ), given its parents.

20 Some definitions of BN (from Wikipedia) 3.X is a Bayesian network with respect to G if every node is conditionally independent of all other nodes in the network, given its Markov blanket. The Markov blanket of a node is its parents, children and children's parents. X = {X 1, X 2,..., X N } is a set of random variables G = (V,E) is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) of vertices (V) and edges (E)

21 Markov blanket A node is conditionally independent of all other nodes in the network, given its parents, children, and children’s parents These constitute the node’s Markov blanket. X1X1 X2X2 X3X3 X4X4 X5X5 X6X6 XkXk

22 Path blocking & d-separation Two nodes X i and X j are conditionally independent given a set  = {X 1,X 2,X 3,...} of nodes if for every undirected path in the BN between X i and X j there is some node X k on the path having one of the following three properties: 1. X k ∈ , and both arcs on the path lead out of X k. 2. X k ∈ , and one arc on the path leads into X k and one arc leads out. 3.Neither X k nor any descendant of X k is in , and both arcs on the path lead into X k. X k blocks the path between X i and X j XiXi XjXj X k1 X k2 X k3  X k1 X k2 X k3 X i and X j are d-separated if all paths betweeen them are blocked

23 Some definitions of BN (from Wikipedia) 4.X is a Bayesian network with respect to G if, for any two nodes i, j: X = {X 1, X 2,..., X N } is a set of random variables G = (V,E) is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) of vertices (V) and edges (E) The Markov blanket of node i is the minimal set of nodes that d-separates node i from all other nodes. The d-separating set(i,j) is the set of nodes that d-separate node i and j.

24 Causal networks Bayesian networks are usually used to represent causal relationships. This is, however, not strictly necessary: a directed edge from node i to node j does not require that X i is causally dependent on X j. –This is demonstrated by the fact that Bayesian networks on the two graphs: are equivalent. They impose the same conditional independence requirements. ABCABC A causal network is a Bayesian network with an explicit requirement that the relationships be causal.

25 Causal networks ABCABC The equivalence is proved with Bayes theorem...

26 Exercise 14.12 * (a) in AIMA Two astronomers in different parts of the world make measurements M 1 and M 2 of the number of stars N in some small region of the sky, using their telescopes. Normally there is a small possibility e of error up to one star in each direction. Each telescope can also (with a much smaller probability f) be badly out of focus (events F 1 and F 2 ) in which case the scientist will undercount by three or more stars (or, if N is less than 3, fail to detect any stars at all). Consider the three networks in Figure 14.22 *. –(a) Which of these Bayesian networks are correct (but not necessarily efficient) representations of the preceeding information? * In the 2:nd edition is this exercise 14.3 and the figure is 14.19.

31 Exercise 14.12 (a) in AIMA (i) must be incorrect – N is d-separated from F 1 and F 2, i.e. knowing the focus states F does not affect N if we know M. This cannot be correct. wrong

43 Efficient representation of PDs Boolean  Boolean: Noisy-OR, Noisy-AND Boolean/Discrete  Discrete: Noisy-MAX Bool./Discr./Cont.  Continuous: Parametric distribution (e.g. Gaussian) Continuous  Boolean: Logit/Probit

44 Noisy-OR example Boolean → Boolean P(E|C 1,C 2,C 3 ) C1C1 01001101 C2C2 00101011 C3C3 00010111 P(E=0)10.1 0.01 0.001 P(E=1)00.9 0.99 0.999 Example from L.E. Sucar The effect (E) is off (false) when none of the causes are true. The probability for the effect increases with the number of true causes. (for this example)

45 Noisy-OR general case Boolean → Boolean Example on previous slide used q i = 0.1 for all i. q1q1 P(E|C 1,...) C1C1 C2C2 CnCn q2q2 qnqn PROD Image adapted from Laskey & Mahoney 1999 Needs only n parameters, not 2 n parameters.

46 Noisy-OR example (II) Fever is True if and only if Cold, Flu or Malaria is True. each cause has an independent chance of causing the effect. –all possible causes are listed –inhibitors are independent ColdFluMalaria q1q1 q2q2 q3q3 Fever

47 Noisy-OR example (II) ColdFluMalaria q 1 = 0.6q 2 = 0.2q 3 = 0.1 Fever P(Fever | Cold) = 0.4 ⇒ q 1 = 0.6 P(Fever | Flu) = 0.8 ⇒ q 2 = 0.2 P(Fever | Malaria) = 0.9 ⇒ q 3 = 0.1

48 Noisy-OR example (II) ColdFluMalaria q 1 = 0.6q 2 = 0.2q 3 = 0.1 Fever P(Fever | Cold) = 0.4 ⇒ q 1 = 0.6 P(Fever | Flu) = 0.8 ⇒ q 2 = 0.2 P(Fever | Malaria) = 0.9 ⇒ q 3 = 0.1

49 Noisy-OR example (II) ColdFluMalaria q 1 = 0.6q 2 = 0.2q 3 = 0.1 Fever P(Fever | Cold) = 0.4 ⇒ q 1 = 0.6 P(Fever | Flu) = 0.8 ⇒ q 2 = 0.2 P(Fever | Malaria) = 0.9 ⇒ q 3 = 0.1

51 Parametric probability densities Boolean/Discr./Continuous → Continuous Use parametric probability densities, e.g., the normal distribution Gaussian networks ( a = input to the node)

54 Inference in BN Inference means computing P(X|e), where X is a query (variable) and e is a set of evidence variables (for which we know the values). Examples: P(Burglary | john_calls, mary_calls) P(Cancer | age, gender, smoking, serum_calcium) P(Cavity | toothache, catch)

55 Exact inference in BN ”Doable” for boolean variables: Look up entries in conditional probability tables (CPTs).

61 Use depth-first search A lot of unneccesary repeated computation...

62 Complexity of exact inference By eliminating repeated calculation & uninteresting paths we can speed up the inference a lot. Linear time complexity for singly connected networks (polytrees). Exponential for multiply connected networks. –Clustering can improve this

63 Approximate inference in BN Exact inference is intractable in large multiply connected BNs ⇒ use approximate inference: Monte Carlo methods (random sampling). –Direct sampling –Rejection sampling –Likelihood weighting –Markov chain Monte Carlo

64 Markov chain Monte Carlo 1.Fix the evidence variables (E 1, E 2,...) at their given values. 2.Initialize the network with values for all other variables, including the query variable. 3.Repeat the following many, many, many times: a.Pick a non-evidence variable at random (query X i or hidden Y j ) b.Select a new value for this variable, conditioned on the current values in the variable’s Markov blanket. Monitor the values of the query variables.
