An Analysis Of Bayesian Networks As Classifiers, Gregory C. Ahlquist Dec 1994

An Analysis Of Bayesian Networks As Classifiers, Gregory C. Ahlquist

Theses and Dissertations

An analysis of Bayesian networks as classifiers is presented. This analysis results in an algorithm and several tools related to Bayesian network classifiers. The tools calculate and display the decision regions for two level Bayesian network classifiers. They collectively provide an approach to analyze the effects of changing network parameters on the network's decision regions. The algorithm defines a Bayesian network classifier to solve traditional classification problems. The algorithm is data driven, meaning that the resulting Bayesian network classifier is uniquely tuned to the classification problem at hand. Also, the algorithm contains procedures for defining the topology of a Bayesian …


Effective Parallel Algorithm Animation, Paul W. Chase Mar 1994

Effective Parallel Algorithm Animation, Paul W. Chase

Theses and Dissertations

The AFIT Algorithm Animation Research Facility AAARF was developed by the Air Force Institute of Technology AFIT as a teaching aid for data structures and algorithm design. In particular, an extensive set of performance animations has been developed for the Intel iPSC Hypercube parallel processing system. This research focuses in part on developing animation support for discrete event simulation, mission routing, and evolutionary algorithms based on abstract representations of parallel algorithm behavior. The effort also builds extensions to the AAARF system and examines direction for further research. An innovative adaptable application-specific animation construction environment has been designed and implemented. The …
