TitleAlgebraic geometry of Bayesian networks
Author(s) Luis David Garcia-Puente, Michael Stillman, Bernd Sturmfels
TypeArticle in Journal
AbstractWe study the algebraic varieties defined by the conditional independence statements of Bayesian networks. A complete algebraic classification is given for Bayesian networks on at most five random variables. Hidden variables are related to the geometry of higher secant varieties.
KeywordsAlgebraic statistics, Bayesian networks, Independence models, Polynomial ideals, Primary decomposition, Secant varieties, Segre varieties
