In bnmonitor: An Implementation of Sensitivity Analysis in Bayesian Networks

Amalgamation of levels

Description

Computation of the diameter of children conditional probability tables when levels of a variable are merged.

Usage

amalgamation(bnfit, node)

Arguments

bnfit	object of class bn.fit.
node	a node of bnfit

Value

A list where each entry refers to a child of node. For each child, the function reports the diameter resulting from the amalgamation of any pair of levels.
