BayesBox

BayesBox is a member of BayesFusion’s family of products developed for modeling, learning, and decision support. It facilitates unlimited online sharing of probabilistic graphical models (such as Bayesian networks, qualitative Bayesian networks, influence diagrams, dynamic Bayesian networks, and hybrid Bayesian networks) created for internal or public use. Customers can upload to the repository any number of models organized into any number of categories. This repository can be accessed by an unlimited number of users through web browsers.

Server part of BayesBox runs on Linux or Windows and is available as a software installable and fully controlled by customers on-premises, or hosted as a service by BayesFusion. Users access BayesBox models through any standards-compliant web browser, can explore the model structure, enter evidence, and examine results.

Bayesian inference in the BayesBox server is performed by SMILE Engine, our cross-platform Bayesian software library.

BayesBox can be fine-tuned to user needs and reflect customer brand, including a name, a logo, and a color scheme. Optionally, administrator interface allows for enabling access control through a login page.

GeNIe allows for opening models from an existing BayesBox instance, which makes BayesBox a useful tool for teams working on decision-theoretic methodologies.

BayesFusion’s public model repository is powered by BayesBox (see https://repo.bayesfusion.com/). For demonstration purposes, we have also created a BayesBox-based web site of a fictitious company Evidentious, Inc., at https://demo.bayesfusion.com/.
