- Abstract
-
The statistical task to learn graphical models of Bayesian network structure
from data leads to the study of special polyhedra. In the paper, we
offer an overview of our polyhedral approach to learning these
statistical models. First, we report on the results on this topic
from our recent papers. The second part of the paper brings some
specific additional results inspired by this approach.
