Bayesian Networks

I find Clojure to be an excelent language for implmenting textbooks and papers, or, as I sometimes call it, unf***ing math. I’ve been casually going through Modeling and Reasoning with Bayesian Networks by Adnan Dawwiche. So far it’s an excelent introduction to the subject as it vitally provides many illucitive examples one can use to verify their understanding of the subject matter. For those interested in understanding the basic pricinicples of Bayesian reasoning I recommend it.

I’ve started implementing some of the examples and a few exercies in this repository, which might be of some interest for others wading through the book. Well see how far I get.
