diagnostic values are too small

Post by Yan »

Dear staff,

I would like to know the reason that diagnostic values of obervation ranked nodes are too small (e.g., 0.006) in the diagnosis of GeNIe. Is it common or usual? How can we explain this? Thanks.

Kind regards

The meaning of the diagnostic values is purely theoretical and there are no units. They are essentially cross-entropies between a node and the fault in question. When it is 0.006, I agree that it is rather small. The interpretation is that when you learn the value of this node, you will not learn much about the fault :-).
I hope this helps,

Marek
