With several new releases in 2011, BayesiaLab has evolved even further with a myriad of innovative functions. We are delighted that so many new BayesiaLab users have joined the Bayesian networks community in 2011. With clients ranging from small research firms to Fortune 500 companies, BayesiaLab is indeed emerging as a new paradigm in applied research. With all the investments we have already committed for the future, we are very confident that our growth will accelerate further in 2012. Happy Holdidays and my very best wishes for a successful 2012! Stefan Conrady Managing Partner Conrady Applied Science, LLC ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recorded Webinar: Probabilistic Structural Equation Models http://cts.vresp.com/c/?ConradyAppliedScienc/4f9093da3c/7321495e85/d3dfa1ec97/utm_content=devrob%40developmentalrobotics.org&utm_source=VerticalResponse&utm_medium=Email&utm_term=Text%20Version%20-%20Link%201&utm_campaign=%40BayesianNetwork%20-%2012%2F2011%20Newsletter Probabilistic Structural Equation Models (PSEM), based on machine-learned Bayesian networks, provide an efficient alternative to traditional Structural Equation Models (SEM). With BayesiaLab 5.0, PSEMs can be created through a series of semi-automatic clustering steps, which allow analysts to perform driver analysis extremely quickly, reducing research time from ?months to minutes.? This webinar will demonstrate a complete workflow for a typical application. Dr. Lionel Jouffe and Stefan Conrady will present several updates to the approach originally described in their white paper, Driver Analysis & Product Optimization. This will include an illustration of Direct Effects computed by means of Likelihood Matching.
