This format is an attempt to design a common format for graphical probabilistic models. The format has not been established as a standard and our implementation is a good faith implementation of what has been agreed upon. Our implementation allows for reading and writing Bayesian networks files written by the package supplied by Microsoft Corporation and known as MSBN (we have implemented file format defined by MSBN Version 1.0.1.7). The file extension, after Microsoft Inc, is *.dsc. You can find information about the BNIF file format at the Microsoft Research MSBN WWW pages.
