Equation node precision

Hello, I am trying to use the equation nodes to compute reliabilities of very reliable information systems. This means that we get numbers with a very high number of decimals (0,9999904632 etc.). We want to use these numbers in products. It appears GeNIe only allows six figures in the computations w...

Thank you again for your response. We are using BNs and GeNIe in our research that concerns evaluating IT system properties. The equation nodes increased ability to reason using (what I sloppily refer to as) continuous variables makes it a whole lot easier to compute performance metrics for instance...

Thank you for your answer! I have even more questions... 1) As for the mathematics: if I understand it correctly the equation nodes are not using continuous Bayesian networks, rather they are based on whatever mathematics fit the different situations at hand (algebra sometimes, simulations at other ...

Mathematics behind the equation nodes?

Excellent, thanks. A very fundamental question to get things started: what is the underlying mathematics behind the equation nodes? Are they somehow based on Bayesian networks, or are they using regular algebra? A second question: When you update your probability distributions and have a look at the...

Also interested in equation node documentation

Hello!

Using the Equation node sounds promising in many ways. Do you have any idea when its documentation will be released?

Kind regards
