Arguments

Value

An object of class bn.fit. Refer to the documentation of bnlearn for details.

Format

A discrete Bayesian network to explore the relationship between social organisation and subsistence strategies. The structure of the BN was given within the referenced paper together with a dataset. Probabilities were learned using the dataset and the discretization mentioned in the paper. The vertices are:

Community_Organisation

(Clan communities, Missing, No exogamous clans);

Community_Size

(<200, >=200);

Gathering
