Subject: Spiegelhalter's causal graph's
I'm interested in using a causal model as described in:
Spiegelhalter, D.J., "Probabilistic Reasoning in Predictive Ex-
pert Systems," in: Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence,
ed. L.N. Kanal, J.F. Lemmer, pp. 47-67, North-Holland, Am-
sterdam, 1986.
Spiegelhalter represents his model in a graph to which he applies
probabilistic theory under a Markov assumption. Could anybody give
me pointers in literature to applications or criticism of this
model ? I've seen some work by Pearl but I wonder how much there
is. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
