FactorBase

The source code repository for the Factor Base system. The flat learner of the code are classes for CMU's Tetrad system. We may also add datasets if we get around to it.

How to Use

First you should import data into your database. We provide two sets of example datasets intestsql folder. Then you can either run.jar or compile the source yourself. If you want to visualize the BayesNet learned, you can runBIF_Generator

Run .jar to get the BN and MLN

• Modifyjar/config.cfg with your own configuration according to format explainedhere
• Injar folder, runjava -jar FactorBase.jar
• Converting the learned BN into MLN by runningjava -jar MLNExporter.jar
• For big databases, you need to specify larger java heap size. For example:java -jar -Xmx8G FactorBase.jar

Compile & Run

• Go intosrc folder
• modifyconfig.cfg with your own configuration according to format explained [here]
• javac -cp ".:./lib/*" Config.java BZScriptRunner.java MakeSetup.java
• javac -cp ".:./lib/*" RunBB.java
• mkdir src
• mv scripts src/
• java -cp ".:./lib/*" MakeSetup
• java -cp ".:./lib/*" RunBB
• Optionally set up the target database and run FunctorWrapper
  • javac -cp ".:./lib/*" MakeTargetSetup.java
  • javac -cp ".:./lib/*" FunctorWrapper.java
  • java -cp ".:./lib/*" MakeTargetSetup
  • java -cp ".:./lib/*" FunctorWrapper
