Genetic Risk Modeling: An Application of Bayes Nets
... This exercise shows how Bayes Nets are inherently suited to medical problems that involve genetic factors. They can be used to predict genotype, or to make diagnoses using complete or incomplete genetic information from a family pedigree. In fact, the BRCAPRO model (Berry, 2002), the most sophistica ...
