Bayesian networks (BNs) are graphical structures that capture the probabilistic relationships between several random variables. They are a natural fit for scenarios that can benefit from both causal as well as probabilistic semantics, thereby, gracefully combining prior knowledge (in causal form) and knowledge from data.

In this tutorial, we will discuss methods to construct Bayesian networks from prior knowledge and statistical methods to improve these models through data. We will cover the exact and approximate inference techniques as well as techniques to learn the parameters and structure of BNs. We will illustrate the BN modeling approach using a real-world case study.

##Workshop course contents and schedule:
This workshop will cover:

  1. Introduction to Bayesian Networks.
  2. How Inference works in Bayesian Networks
  3. Parameter learning
  4. Bayesian structure learning
  5. Real-world applications
