Abstract

In this paper B2R algorithm that converts Bayesian networks into sets of rules is proposed. It is tested on several data sets with various configurations and results show that accuracy is similar to original Bayesian networks even after pruning a high number of rules. It allows to exploit advantages of both knowledge representation techniques.
