Subject: BNT (Bayesian Network Tools) 1.0a, open source Java suite

I am writing to announce the first release of Bayesian Network Tools (BNT), an open-source suite of Java tools for research probabilistic reasoning.

BNT currently includes the following modules:

  • Exact inference (clique-tree)
  • Sampling-based inference and data generator
  • K2 algorithm for structure learning
  • Graphical BN editor and interconversion suite
  • Experimental GA for structure learning
The alpha release of BNT 1.0 (04 May 2002 build) is now on Sourceforge and shall be available for download with or without Javadoc within 48 hours. BNT uses the XML Bayesian Network interchange format and a full release scheduled for 04 Aug 2002 shall include interconversion tools among many formats.
