Probabilistic model for assessing occupational risk during the handling of nanomaterials.
An object of class bn.fit. Refer to the documentation of bnlearn for details.
A discrete Bayesian network for the assessment of the occupational risk associated with the handling of nanomaterials in research laboratories (before expert opinion). Probabilities were given within the referenced paper. The vertices are:
(High, Medium, Low);
(High, Medium, Low);
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
(High, Medium, Low);
(High, Medium, Low);
(High, Medium, Low);
(High, Medium, Low);
(High, Medium, Low);
(Full containment/isolation, Enclosed ventilation, Local ventilation, General mechanical ventilation);
(No use, Cotton lab coats, Synthetic material lab coats, Chemical protection coveralls);
(No use, Rubber gloves, Nitrile gloves - 1 pair, Nitrile gloves - 2 pairs);
(No use, Safety glasses, Safety goggles, Face shields);

(No, Yes, Yes - consider NMs);
(No, Yes - less than 12 months, Yes - more than 12 months);
(No, Yes);
(No, Yes);
(Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Semiannual, Yearly);
