Undirected Conditional Graphical Model Family

An Undirected Conditional Graphical Model Family is a conditional probability graphical family that is an undirected probability model family.

• Context:
  • It can specify a set of Undirected Graphical Statistical Model Instances.
• Example(s):
  • Conditional Random Fields.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • a Undirected Generative Graphical Model Family.
  • a Directed Conditional Graphical Metamodel, such as Hidden Markov Models Metamodel.
