Title: Two Constructive Methods for Designing Compact Feedforward Networks of Threshold Units Abstract: We propose two algorithms for constructing and training compact feedforward networks of linear threshold units. The Shift procedure constructs networks with a single hidden layer while the PTI constructs multilayer...

Title: Lazy Bayesian Trees Abstract: The naive Bayesian classifier is simple and effective, but its attribute independence assumption is often violated in the real world. A number of approaches have been developed that seek to alleviate this problem. A Bayesian tree learning algorithm builds a decision tree, and gene...

Title: Revising Bayesian Network Parameters Using Backpropagation Abstract: The problem of learning Bayesian networks with hidden variables is known to be a hard problem. Even the simpler task of learning just the conditional probabilities on a Bayesian network with hidden variables is hard. In this paper, we present...
