The HPBNET Procedure

This example also uses the Sampsio.Hmeq sample data set to learn a BAN structure, which is specified by STRUCTURE=NAIVE.

 proc hpbnet data=sampsio.hmeq numbin=10 alpha=0.1 structure=Naive
             missingint=IMPUTE missingnom=LEVEL;
     target Bad;
     input Reason Job Delinq Derog Ninq/level=NOM;
     input Loan Mortdue Value Yoj Clage Clno Debtinc/level=INT;
     output network=network;
 run;

The following statements produce Figure 8, which shows the network structure. In the structure, Bad is a parent of Delinq, Derog, Job, Ninq, Clage, Clno, Loan and Mortdue. In addition, Delinq is the other parent of Derog, Job is a parent of both Mortdue and Clno.

 proc print data=network noobs label;
     var _parentnode_ _childnode_;
     where _type_="STRUCTURE";
 run;
