Initializer {BayesNetBP}

Initialize a ClusterTree object

Description

Initialize a ClusterTree object

Usage

Initializer(dag, data, node.class, propagate = TRUE)

Arguments

dag

a graphNEL object of the Bayesian network

data

a data.frame object

node.class

a named vector of logical values, TRUE if node is discrete, FASLE if otherwise

propagate

logical TRUE if the discrete part of the ClusterTree to be propagated

Details

A wrapper function to initialize a ClusterTree object. It combines the functions of ClusterTreeCompile, LocalModelCompile, ElimTreeInitialize and Propagate, thus initialize the ClusterTree object in a single step.

Value

ClusterTree object
