Abstract: Credal networks are a generalisation of Bayesian networks, where local distributions are replaced by convex sets of them. This gives higher expressiveness to the models without preventing the possibility of a compact specification of a joint generative model, as well as the possibility of performing reasoning by inference algorithms. We present such a class of model and discuss the existing inference tools available for them. Applications to machine learning are presented together with a number of knoledge-based decision-support systems based on these models.
