    • Graphical models are a marriage between graph theory and probability theory
    • They clarify the relationship between neural networks and related network-based models such as HMMs, MRFs, and Kalman lters
    • Indeed, they can be used to give a fully probabilistic interpretation to many neural network architectures
    • Some advantages of the graphical model point of view
      • inference and learning are treated together
      • supervised and unsupervised learning are merged seamlessly
      • missing data handled nicely
      • a focus on conditional independence and computational issues
      • interpretability (if desired)
