Explaining Multivariate Time Series to Detect Early Problem Signs Architectures and Efficient Learning Algorithms for Dynamic Bayesian Networks Allan Tucker, Xiaohui Liu
Datasets • Visual Field & Gene Expression • Large/Huge number of variables • Short Multivariate Time Series • Longitudinal (Experimental Conditions / Patients) • Oil Refinery • Large Possible Time Lags • Changing Dependencies
Dynamic Bayesian Networks • Probabilistic Graphical Models • Easily Used by Non-Statisticians • Able to Combine Expert Knowledge with Data • Incorporate Hidden / Temporal Nodes etc.
Developing Specialist DBNs • Previously Used DBNs to Generate Explanations from Oil Refinery Data • Hidden Nodes to Model Changing Operating Modes • DBN Model to Combine Visual Field MTS Data with Non-MTS Clinical Data • Combining Gene Expression Experiments
Efficient Learning Algorithms • Heuristic Grouping Algorithms • Seeding Evolutionary Algorithms • Intelligent Operators • Time Lag Mutation Operators • DBN Link Crossover Operators • Spatial Crossover and Mutation (VF Data)
