Bayesian networks (BNs) offer unique benefits for combining data and expert knowledge to model complex joint probability distributions. Recent advances in inference algorithms enabled efficient computation of BNs with both discrete and continuous variables that are also called hybrid BNs. Consequently, BNs have been widely used as risk assessment and decision support tools in various domains including project management. This article illustrates the use of BNs in different aspects of project management and gives an overview of the relevant studies in this domain.

Bayesian Unit Root Test İn Stochastic Volatility Models With Correlated Errors And Autoregressive Model Of Order P Kalaylıoğlu Akyıldız, Zeynep Işıl(2010-04-01) The purpose of this project is to develop a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) based unit-root testing procedure to test for nonstationarity in the extended Stochastic Volatility (eSV) Model which we describe below. A basic SV (bSV) model specifies that i) conditional mean equation is modeled as a nonlinear stochastic function of unobserved volatilities, ii) the logarithm of the unobserved volatility follows a log-normal autoregressive model of order 1, iii) the innovations in the volatility model a...
Bayesian modelling for asymmetric multi-modal circular data Kılıç, Muhammet Burak; Kalaylıoğlu Akyıldız, Zeynep Işıl; Sengupta, Ashis; Department of Statistics (2015) In this thesis, we propose a Bayesian methodology based on sampling importance re-sampling for asymmetric and bimodal circular data analysis. We adopt Dirichlet process (DP) mixture model approach to analyse multi-modal circular data where the number of components is not known. For the analysis of temporal circular data, such as hourly measured wind directions, we join DP mixture model approach with circular times series modelling. The approaches are illustrated with both simulated and real life data sets. ...
Bayesian semiparametric models for nonignorable missing datamechanisms in logistic regression Öztürk, Olcay; Kalaylıoğlu Akyıldız, Zeynep Işıl; Department of Statistics (2011) In this thesis, Bayesian semiparametric models for the missing data mechanisms of nonignorably missing covariates in logistic regression are developed. In the missing data literature, fully parametric approach is used to model the nonignorable missing data mechanisms. In that approach, a probit or a logit link of the conditional probability of the covariate being missing is modeled as a linear combination of all variables including the missing covariate itself. However, nonignorably missing covariates may n...
Effective induction of gene regulatory networks using a novel recommendation method Ozsoy, Makbule Gulcin; Polat, Faruk; Alhajj, Reda (2019-01-01) In this paper, we introduce a method based on recommendation systems to predict the structure of Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) making use of data from multiple sources. Our method is based on collaborative filtering approach enhanced with multiple criteria to predict the relationships of genes, i.e., which genes regulate others. We conduct experiments on two data sets to demonstrate the applicability and sustainability of our proposal. The first data set is composed of microarray data and Transcription Fa...
