Genie crashes if Probability table gets over 4.X million

[Christian]

Hello,

I have the following problem.

10 Nodes, each 5 states. Now connecting Node1 to Node9 to Node0. So the probability table should be 9 Million. Then GeNIe crashes

Is there a limit of possible propability values? How can I get beyond this limit?

Thank you,

Christian

Using 5-state nodes I can create a model with 10 incoming arcs, so the child node has CPT with ~49 million entries. Each entry is 8 bytes, so the total memory consumed is around 400 mb. Adding another incoming arc would make it 5 times larger, close to the 2GB user address space limit for 32-bit process in Windows.

Unfortunately, SMILE doesn't have much error handling when it comes to checking the memory allocations. The program will just crash.

ahh, okay, I understand.

So if I would use a 64bit Windows it should work with a bigger network?

No difference, since GeNIe is 32-bit binary.
