The Max-Relevance and Min-Redundancy Greedy Bayesian Network Learning Algorithm.

Existing algorithms for learning Bayesian network require a lot of computation on high dimensional itemsets which affects reliability, robustness and accuracy of these algorithms and takes up a large amount of time. To address the above problem, we propose a new Bayesian network learning algorithm MRMRG, Max Relevance-Min Redundancy Greedy. MRMRG algorithm is a variant of K2 which is a well-known BN learning algorithm. We also analyze the time complexity of MRMRG. The experimental results show that MRMRG algorithm has much better efficiency. It is also shown that MRMRG algorithm has better accuracy than most of existing learning algorithms for limited sample datasets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
