Abstract

Bayesian networks are efficient classification techniques, and widely applied in many fields, however, their structure learning is NP-hard. In this paper, a Bayesian network structure learning method called Tree-like Bayesian network (BN-TL) was proposed, which constructs the network by estimating the correlation between the features and the correlation between the class label and the features. Two metabolomics datasets about liver disease and five public datasets from the University of California at Irvine repository (UCI) were used to demonstrate the performance of BN-TL. The result shows that BN-TL outperforms the other three classifiers, including Naive Bayesian classifier (NB), Bayesian network classifier whose structure is learned by using K2 greedy search strategy (BN-K2) and a method proposed by Kuschner in 2010 (BN-BMC) in most cases.
