Continuous models

Graphical models, such as Bayesian networks, are not necessarily consisting of only discrete variables. They are, in fact, close relatives of systems of simultaneous structural equations. SMILE allows for constructing models consisting of equation nodes that are alternative, graphical representations of systems of simultaneous structural equations.

Tutorial 7 contains a complete program demonstrating the use of continuous models.
