Probabilistic Graphical Models
MICRO-DEGREEWe will be covering semantic foundations, inference and learning for Bayesian networks, functional causal models and rule-based approaches to causal and probabilistic reasoning. This will equip you with the ability to model systems governed by complex, probabilistic relationships and reason both within the system and on interventions into the system. We will discuss the types of knowledge required to answer certain queries and how that is reflected in the choice of model. Lastly, we will see to what extent access to data can assist us in constructing models that can give the answers we need in a principled way.
