%0 Journal Article %T Learning the Structure of Bayesian Network from Small Amount of Data %A Adina COCU %A Marian Viorel CRACIUN %A Bogdan COCU %J Annals of Dunarea de Jos %D 2009 %I Universitatea Dunarea de Jos %X Many areas of artificial intelligence must handling with imperfection ofinformation. One of the ways to do this is using representation and reasoning withBayesian networks. Creation of a Bayesian network consists in two stages. First stage isto design the node structure and directed links between them. Choosing of a structurefor network can be done either through empirical developing by human experts orthrough machine learning algorithm. The second stage is completion of probabilitytables for each node. Using a machine learning method is useful, especially when wehave a big amount of leaning data. But in many fields the amount of data is small,incomplete and inconsistent. In this paper, we make a case study for choosing the bestlearning method for small amount of learning data. Means more experiments we dropconclusion of using existent methods for learning a network structure. %K Bayesian network %K machine learning algorithm %K structure learning %U http://www.ann.ugal.ro/eeai/archives/2009/Lucrare-2-ACocu-p12-16.pdf
