The term Bayesian network was coined by Judea Pearl in 1985 to emphasize:
- the often subjective nature of the input information
- the reliance on Bayes' conditioning as the basis for updating information
- the distinction between causal and evidential modes of reasoning
In the late 1980s Pearl's Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systemsand Neapolitan's Probabilistic Reasoning in Expert Systems summarized their properties and established them as a field of study.
