Probabilistic inference

Probabilistic inference is the deduction of probabilistic statements from a formal probabilistic model. Probabilistic inference is an important source of insight and clarity in decision analysis. In particular, well-formed (partial) relevance diagrams can be manipulated with reversal, removal, and addition operations to yield many useful (and often quite surprising) results.
