Hugin Exercises [pdf-file]

Hugin is general development and runtime system, which is easy to use for anyone wishing to construct an expert system based on Bayesian networks. Over the years the system has been extended in various ways (e.g. influence diagrams, continuous variables, structural learning, adaptation, object-oriented specification of Bayesian networks and influence diagrams, etc.)." (cf. Hugin Help and Hugin Expert White Paper). Download the lite version from Hugin lite!
