Garcia–Stillman–Sturmfels conjecture for the binary hidden naive Bayes model
Garcia–Stillman–Sturmfels conjecture for the binary hidden naive Bayes model
Let be the number of observed variables, each with two states, and let be the ideal associated to the hidden naive Bayes model with one hidden variable having two states. For every bipartition of the observed variables, form the corresponding two-dimensional flattening of the probability tensor.
Garcia–Stillman–Sturmfels conjecture. The ideal is generated by the minors of all two-dimensional flattenings arising from bipartitions of the observed variables.
The paper presents this as a special case from which a proof of the full conjecture of Garcia, Stillman, and Sturmfels would follow. The supplied text does not establish whether this special case is resolved, so its database status remains open.
