Re: Summing up utilities

I have an influence diagram that has a number of utility nodes. I just want to get the sum of the expected utilities. I can do this with GeNIe by introducing a dummy decision node; the decision node shows the sum of the expected utilities. You'll need MAU or ALU node. In GeNIe, just add new utility...

Re: re: Smile Installation

What files do I install: VC 9.0 RTM and VC 6.0 SP6? That depends on Visual C++ version you're using, of course. The SP6 refers to sixth service pack issued for VC++ 6.0, there's no direct relationship to SP1's for VC++ 7.1 and 8.0. Also, I don't have an Example Networks directory that is supposed t...

Re: Automatic

The current parameter learning function "Data -> Learning Parameters" in Genie requires MANUAL mapping of network variables (and states) and data variables (states). GeNIe tries to match as many nodes/variables as possible by comparing the identifiers. The states are also matched. This wi...

But, probably you can give me the conditions implemented in the code under which the error message occur. Am I right? The condition is not expressed as explicit function of node/outcome/arc count. If you're running default BN inference (clustering) from within Cooper's algorithm, then error you're ...

I would like to know exactly the conditions that produce this error message. how can I see how close I am to the limitations? This message is emitted when BN inference fails inside Cooper algorithm. It's not possible to predict "how close" you're to successful BN inference given the numbe...

Re: Error when running Cooper's algorithm

The most likely reason is the complexity of the network. The ID influence algorithm converts ID to BN, then performs BN inference. If resulting BN network is very complex, then it may not be possible to successully perform BN inference.

Oh, thats sad. But when I am using smile.net and running this on Windows using the x64 Version of DotNet then this smile.net version should also running in 64 bit mode and so I should be able to use the bigger memory? Smile.net is just thin wrapper over Win32 version of SMILE. The only benefit of h...

You can't. The only 64-bit SMILE version we have at the moment is for Linux.

Re: ReadFile and WriteFile retvals

What are the return values of ReadFile and WriteFile? This entry has some basic information on error handling: http://genie.sis.pitt.edu/wiki/Application_Programmers_Manual:_Error_Handling DSL_OKAY is #defined to zero, so it seems that WriteFile does the job. Are you sure your filename isn't /dev/n...

AFAIK if you set missing value to 80% then randomly 80% of the data is missing. But that is not the true data source. Row 1-8 has 100% data and row 9 to 13 about 20%. if you set the missing value to 80% then everywhere data is missing, not only node 9 to 13. At least this is what I interpret the Ge...

How is this different from existing "Missing values (%)" option in "Generate data" dialog?

Please be more specific. What exactly is the 'index' you're referring to? A node handle, perhaps?
