In real applications of health data management, it is necessary to make Bayesian network (BN) inferences when evidence is not contained in existing conditional probability tables (CPTs). In this paper, we are to augment the learning function to BN inferences from existing CPTs. Based on the support vector machine (SVM) and sigmoid, we first transform existing CPTs into samples. Then we use transformed samples to train the SVM for finding a maximum likelihood hypothesis, and to fit a sigmoid for mapping outputs of the SVM into probabilities. Further, we give the approximate inference method of BNs with maximum likelihood hypotheses. An applied example and preliminary experiments show the feasibility of our proposed methods.
