Object- Oriented Bayesian Networks : An Overview
Presented By: Asma Sanam LarikCourse: Probabilistic Reasoning
Limitations of BNStandard BN representation
makes it hard to ◦construct ◦update ◦reuse ◦learn ◦reason with
complex models.
Scaling up
Our goal is to scale BNs to more complex domains
Large-scale diagnosis. Monitor complex processes:
◦highway traffic; ◦military situation assessment.
Control intelligent agents in complex environments: ◦Smart robot; ◦intelligent building.
Problem : Knowledge EngineeringMain reuse mechanism: cut &
paste
How is the model updated?
How do we construct large BNs?
Problem: BN InferenceBN Inference can be exponentialInference complexity
depends on subtle properties of BN structure.
=>Will a large BN support efficient inference?
Approach 1:Proposed by Laskey Network fragments
A Network fragment is basically a set of related variable together with knowledge about the probabilistic relationships among the variables.
Two types of object were identified Input and Result fragments. Input fragments are composed together to form a result fragment. To join input fragments together an influence combination rule is needed to compute local probability
Exploit structure!The architecture of complexity [Herbert Simon, 1962]many complex systems have a nearly
decomposable, hierarchic structure. Hierarchic systems are usually
composed of only a few different kinds of subsystems.
By appropriate “recoding”, the redundancy that is present but unobvious in the structure of a complex system can often be made patent.
Our goal ?Our goal is a more expressive
representation language with◦rigorous probabilistic semantics; ◦model-based; ◦supports hierarchical structure & redundancy;
◦exploits structure for effective inference!
Object-Oriented Bayesian Network• Classes represent types of object
– Attributes for a class are represented as OOBN nodes
– Input nodes refer to instances of another class– Output nodes can be referred to by other classes– Encapsulated nodes are private
» Conditionally independent of other objects given input and output
nodes• Classes may have subclasses
– Subclass inherits attributes from superclass– Subclass may have additional attributes not in
superclass• Classes may be instantiated
– Instances represent particular members of the class

OOBNAn OOBN models a domain
with hierarchical structure & redundancy
An OOBN consists of a set of objects: ◦simple objects: random variables ◦complex objects :have attributes
which are enclosed objects.
Inter Object InteractionRelated objects can influence
each other via imports and exports.
X imports A from Y => ◦value of X can depend on the value
of A. ◦objects related to X can import A
from X.
Imports and Exports / Inputs and Output VariablesValue of object depends probabilistically on
the value of its imports
A simple object is associated with a conditional probability table◦ distribution over its values given values for its imports.
The value of a complex object X is composed of the values for its attributes
Its probabilistic model is defined recursively from the models of its attributes
SemanticsTheorem: The probabilistic
model for an object X defines a conditional probability distribution
P( value of X | imports into X from enclosing object)

Sub Classing and InheritanceIf a class C’ should be a subclass
of C it should hold◦ the set of input variables for C is a
subset of input variables for C’◦ the set of output variables for C is a
subset of output variables for C’

OOBN InferenceThe OOBN representation allows us to
easily construct large complex modelsCan we do inference in these models?
• BN constructed very large… efficient inference?
Approaches to InferencingConvert to normal BN and use standard
inference techniques
Convert OOBN to MSBN and apply MSBN inference approach
By exploiting the modularity we can obtain good results
Algorithms are being developed in this area
ConclusionIn essence, where Bayesian
networks contain two types of knowledge relevance relationships and conditional probabilities OOBNs contain a third type of knowledge organizational structure.
They can model static situations but cannot model situations where instances are changing
