dc.description.abstract | Bayesian Networks are probabilistic structured representations of domains
which have been applied to monitoring and manipulating cause and effects for modelled
systems as disparate as the weather, disease and mobile telecommunications networks.
Although useful, Bayesian Networks are notoriously difficult to build accurately
and efficiently which has somewhat limited their application to real world problems.
Ontologies are also a structured representation of knowledge, encoding facts and
rules about a given domain. This paper outlines an approach to harness the knowledge
and inference capabilities inherent in an ontology model to automate the construction
of Bayesian Networks to accurately represent a domain of interest. The approach
was implemented in the context of an adaptive, self-configuring network management
system in the telecommunications domain. In this system, the ontology model has
the dual function of knowledge repository and facilitator of automated workflows and
the generated BN serves to monitor effects of management activity, forming part of a
feedback look for self-configuration decisions and tasks. | en |
