Bayesian Additive Regression Trees using Bayesian model averaging [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics and Computing, 2017
Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) is a statistical sum of trees model. It can be considered a Bayesian version of machine learning tree ensemble methods where the individual trees are the base learners. However for data sets where the number of variables $p$ is large (e.g.

Evolutionary Bayesian Rose Trees

IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering, 2015
We present an evolutionary multi-branch tree clustering method to model hierarchical topics and their evolutionary patterns over time. The method builds evolutionary trees in a Bayesian online filtering framework. The tree construction is formulated as an online posterior estimation problem, which well balances both the fitness of the current tree and ...

A Bayesian guide to tree felling

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2000
To most evolutionary biologists, building phylogenetic trees is a bore. Comparative approaches to understanding patterns as diverse as the correlation of body size and brain size in primates, and the evolution of extended phenotypes in gallwasps, require a robust phylogeny on which to place changes in character state.

Tractable Bayesian social learning on trees

2012 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory Proceedings, 2012
We study agents in a social network who learn by observing the actions of their neighbors. The agents iteratively estimate an unknown "state of the world" s from initial private signals, and the past actions of their neighbors in the social network. First, we consider a set of Bayesian agents, and investigate the computational problem the agents face ...

Bayesian Mapping of Lichens Growing on Trees

Biometrical Journal, 2001
Summary: Suitability of trees as hosts for epiphytic lichens are studied in a forest stand of size 25 ha. Suitability is measured as occupation probabilites which are modelled using hierarchical Bayesian approach. These probabilities are useful for an ecologist.

Online Learning with Bayesian Classification Trees

2016 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), 2016
Randomized classification trees are among the most popular machine learning tools and found successful applications in many areas. Although this classifier was originally designed as offline learning algorithm, there has been an increased interest in the last years to provide an online variant. In this paper, we propose an online learning algorithm for

On Decision Trees for (1,2)-Bayesian Networks

Fundamenta Informaticae, 2002
Bayesian Networks (BN) are convenient tool for representation of probability distribution of variables. We study time complexity of decision trees which compute values of all observable variables from BN. We consider (1,2)-BN in which each node has at most 1 entering edge, and each variable has at most 2 values.

Applying Bayesian Approach to Decision Tree

2006
Applying Bayesian approach to decision tree (DT) model, and then a Bayesian-inference-based decision tree (BDT) model is proposed. For BDT we assign prior to the model parameters. Together with observed samples, prior are converted to posterior through Bayesian inference.
