This chapter introduces exponential families of distributions, focusing on links with convex analysis and specifically with the theory of conjugate duality. This is then applied to updating the probability distribution in a graphical model in the light of new information. One of the key features of
Shanbhag (1972 Shanbhag ( , 1979) ) has characterized the distributions belonging to an exponential family on R such that the Bhattacharyya matrix is diagonal. Since then, this set of distributions has been classed by Morris (1982) and is referred to as the class of quadratic natural exponential
