Abstract

Influence Diagrams (ID) are widely known to be a useful tool in Decision Analysis (DA). However, when facing a complex real-world problem, we often encounter many difficulties. Namely, the evolution of the ID skeleton until a final version is attained, provides interesting issues related to problem modelling. We also come up against computational difficulties caused by the size of the problem. Our motivation is a real medical problem of neonatal jaundice management, and we present the solution we have implemented in the Decision Support System (DSS).
