Abstract

The current article describes the belief propagation in Bayesian Network. Existing books or online tutorials do not contain explanations with enough detail for a novice to understand the mathematics behind the method. Using a real example of Water Quality model, this report will help anyone to understand the belief propagation in Bayesian Network without much knowledge in probability calculus.
