Yes sure it does!
I will try different ESS values and see if I can improve the learning.
Thanks !

Re: EM algorithm and smoothing
Hi Mark, Thanks a lot for your answer! I agree with you, normally it should be avoided to have a combination of variables appearing only in the new data. However that cannot really be avoided in my case (or at least as far as I see it now), that is why I thought smoothing would help here. Then, my q...

Re: EM algorithm and smoothing
Hi Marek, Mark, Thanks a lot for your answers, and sorry if this appears to be confusing. Let me try to rephrase and give a bit more details about what I want to do. First, I now understand that if you use the uniform distribution as a starting point, you are doing some smoothing (to avoid having CP...

Re: EM algorithm and smoothing
Hi Mark,
Thanks a lot for your answer. I see the point although I do not really know how to set the prior distribution of my variable (at least without doing this manually). Could you help me out?

EM algorithm and smoothing
Hello, I have a question related to the EM algorithm implemented in the dsl_em class. Is there any smoothing implemented during the EM process? I could not find the info, and it does not seem that any parameters in the function can control this. - If yes, which is the exact smoothing implemented? - ...

Training with a completely hidden node
Hi all, I would like to have more insights on training a BN with a node that is completely hidden. Can I do that? A small illustration to make things clearer: I am building a network for the purpose of monitoring some variations in the performances of an electronic circuit. These variations cannot b...
