HUGIN GUI Discussion / Re: Information Entropy Minmization Discretization

« on: September 04, 2021, 16:21:57  »

Hi Marco,

The IEM discretization method is based on the algorithm of the following paper:

U. M. Fayyad and K. B. Irani. 'Multi-Interval discretization of continuous valued attributes'. In Proceedings of the Thireenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, pages 1022-1027, 1993.

If you have ideas for other (or better) discretization algorithms to implement, then please let us know.

Best regards
Anders

HUGIN GUI Discussion / Re: Plate Models

Hi Marco,

You can try to use the combined OOBN and DBN facility in HUGIN. Maybe it is sufficient for your needs? In the DBN you can define the number of time steps in the time window.

We have a YouTube tutorial on DBNs in HUGIN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go7O6-UfFWk

Hope this is useful
Best regards

RHUGIN / Problem running RHugin using latest version of HUGIN

« on: April 20, 2020, 10:40:31  »

The RHugin plugin (https://github.com/huginexpert/RHugin) searches for the HUGIN installation is a specific location. This location is no longer used to install HUGIN software.

Here is how to solve the issue on the Windows platform:

RHugin tries to locate the Hugin installation, but fails because the naming of the Hugin directory has changed.  Try the following workaround:

• Start a “Command Prompt” with “Run as Administartor” privileges.
• CD to the directory that contains the Hugin installation ("C:\Program Files\Hugin Expert").
• Run this command: mklink /D "Hugin Researcher 8.8 (x64)" "HUGIN 8.8 (x64)"

     

Notice the Hugin/HUGIN distinction in the mklink-command.

Then follow the instructions for installing the RHugin package.

General Discussion / Re: What does P(e) stands for and How does Hugin calculates it?

« on: February 26, 2020, 19:31:21  »

P(e) is the probability of the evidence. E.g., if you have entered X=x and Y=y (assuming discrete nodes), then P(e)=P(X=x,Y=y).

It is calculated as the normalization constant after propagation of evidence in the junction tree.

FAQ / Re: How can I use HUGIN in Matlab?

« on: February 06, 2020, 20:08:03  »

Due to an update in Matlab (version 2018a), the access to enums has changed. The above code should be updated to something like this:

Code: [Select]


ghapi = NET.addAssembly ('C:\Program Files\Hugin Expert\HUGIN 8.8 (x64)\HDE8.8CS\Lib\hugincs-8.8-2.0-x64.dll');
myEquilibirumEnumHandle = ghapi.AssemblyHandle.GetType('HAPI.Domain+Equilibrium');
myEvidenceModeEnumHandle2 = ghapi.AssemblyHandle.GetType('HAPI.Domain+EvidenceMode');

d = HAPI.Domain ('C:\Program Files\Hugin Expert\HUGIN 8.8 (x64)\Samples\ChestClinic.net', HAPI.DefaultClassParseListener);
L = d.GetNodeByName ('L');
d.Compile ();
L.GetBelief (0)
%ans =
%    0.0550
L.GetBelief (1)
%ans =
%    0.9450

X = d.GetNodeByName ('X');
X.SelectState (0);
d.Propagate (myEquilibirumEnumHandle.GetEnumValues().Get(1), myEvidenceModeEnumHandle2.GetEnumValues().Get(0));
L.GetBelief (0)
% %ans =
% %    0.4887
 L.GetBelief (1)
% %ans =
% %    0.5113

FAQ / CLI install documentation HUGIN 8.7

« on: October 18, 2019, 09:59:10  »

The following command-line is known to work (April 2019):

msiexec /i HuginDist87(x64).msi /L*v SilentInstallation.log /quiet PATH_LICENSE="C:\TMP\LICENSE-8.7"

A couple of words on the installation:

• The PATH_LICENSE is of course the path to the location of the HUGIN License file.
• The .MSI file does not perform a cryptographic check of the License Key - only a shallow sanity check. The deep check is performed every time HUGIN is launched. Therefore you must launch HUGIN to be sure that everything is working properly.
• The .MSI file will write the license to the location: C:\ProgramData\Hugin Expert. If anything goes wrong, the file can be manually copied to this location.

Dear Marco,

The number of time slices is set under "Network->Network Properties->DBN".

Hope this helps

HUGIN GUI Discussion / Re: How to achieve "flat" panorama from a 360 photosphere(?)

« on: July 27, 2019, 18:16:43  »

Hello Raymond,

I assume that you by now have realised that "our" HUGIN is a tool for probabilistic graphical models and not images.

Sorry for the belated reply.

General Discussion / Re: Expressing Fault Tree Analysis in BBN

« on: June 06, 2018, 07:09:52  »

Hi Mel,

The "generalization" of OR / AND is MAX / MIN. If you encode false/correct as 0, true/failure as 1, and defective as 2 using Numbered nodes and use MIN/MAX instead of AND/OR, then you should be able to encode the desired CPTs.

The idea is that there must be an order on the states and this is enforced by the use of the Numbered node where 0 would reflect the absence of a cause and higher values reflect a more significant presence of the cause.

Let me know if this works for you.
Anders

FAQ / Re: How can I use HUGIN in Matlab?

« on: May 16, 2018, 10:00:09  »

The method

Code: [Select]

enterFindingis used for entering evidence on a node. There is also a selectState method to set the node to a specific state.

To change the CPT of the a node you need access the table for the node and manipulate its content. The documentation has a complete example building a network (here referring to the .NET API documentation):
http://download.hugin.com/webdocs/manuals/CS/html/d4648875-d41a-783b-d5f4-638df39ee413.htm#Example%202

FAQ / Re: How can I use HUGIN in Matlab?

« on: May 05, 2018, 19:10:51  »

Is it possible to assign multiple nodes into an array in MATLAB and then call them from there instead of "one-by-one" method?

Yes, this should not be a problem. I'm not certain of the exact syntex, but using the HUGIN .NET API it should be something like this:

Code: [Select]

Node []array;
array = new Node[2];
array[0]=A;
array[1]=B;
hope this helps

Hello,

If you want P(C1=true|P2=true,P3=true)=0.3*0.3=0.09, then you can achieve this using a "noisy-add" gate as demonstrated in the attached model. You set P2_input=true and P3_input=true to get the desire result.

Hope this helps.

FAQ / Re: How can I use HUGIN in Matlab?

« on: February 17, 2018, 22:02:54  »

Hello,

This line of code is not correct:

Code: [Select]

A_table=d.GetTable ('A');
You should invoke GetTable on A as in:

Code: [Select]

A_table=A.GetTable ();
The node A has a table (a representation of its CPT).

hope this helps

Hi,

Domain does not have a table. You need to access the node. Can you send the code that produces the error?
