The problem of learning Bayesian networks from statistical data is described and reformulated as a discrete optimization problem. For a solution we employ the stochastic algorithm that is known as simulated annealing and that is based on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo approach. Numerical examples are
A nonparametric ("median") method for fitting a single exponential to biological data is described. Its performance compared with that of least-squares alternatives has been assessed by analyzing simulated experimental data. The method appears to be reliable and relatively efficient.
