Abstract

This paper applies the Object Oriented Probabilistic Relational Modelling Language to recursive probability models. We present two novel anytime inference algorithms for recursive probability models expressed using this language. We discuss the strengths and limitations of these algorithms and compare their performance against the Iterative Structured Variable Elimination algorithm proposed for Probabilistic Relational Modelling Language using three different non-linear genetic recursive probability models.
