To obtain the
highest level of success using advanced and comprehensive
software products by Hugin Expert, it is very important to
understand how to use the tools, and how to integrate the
functionality into your own products. Read the following sections
for an in-depth description of our different software
features.
The API Manuals
The API manual section contains downloadable
manuals for all the different API's distributed with the
Hugin Decision Engine. The API manuals are the same as those that
come with our commercial product, and contain simple programming
examples that can help you to get started.
The Net Language
This section describes the special-purpose
language called the net language, used to describe Bayesian
belief networks and influence diagrams within the Hugin GUI and
the Hugin Decision Engine. This language allows the user to
create complete descriptions of Bayesian belief networks and
influence diagrams containing specifications of the structure of
the network model, the conditional probability and the utility
functions, and the temporal ordering of decisions (for influence
diagrams).
