Applications of PGMs and relation and conversion of Bayes and Markov's model
In this article, we will know more about PGMs: its application, Relation between Bayes network and Markov's Random field and conversion of Bayes network into Markov's random field.

Application of PGMs: (Use cases)
- Netflix, Amazon, facebook all use PGM recommend what is best for you.
- This algorithm, Use the latent factor model and non-negative matrix factorization.
- In politics American presidential polls using PGMs for prediction. FiveThirtyEight company that makes a prediction about American presidential polls using PGMs.
- PGM is also inferred whether one is a MODI and KEJRIWAL supporter.
How Bayes network and Markov Random Fields Model related to each other:
 |
For P(A, B) = P(A) * P(B/A) |
For P(A,B) α Ф(A,B) |
 |
For chain: P(A,B) = P(A) P(B/A) P(C/B) |
For chain: P(A,B) α Ф(A,B) Ф(B,C) |
 |
Shared parents: P(A,B,C) = P(A) P(B/A) P(C/B) |
Shared parents: P(A,B,C) α Ф(A,B) Ф(A,C) Ф(A,B) ← P(A) P(B\A) Ф(A,C) ← P(C\A) |
 |
Two parent shared a child: P(A,B,C) = P(A) P(B) P(C\A,B) |
A and B are independent given C P(A,B,C) α Ф(A,C) Ф(B,C) |
Converting Bayes network into Markov random fields:
Moralizing parents: P (A, B, C) α Ф(A,C) Ф(B,C) where A and B are independent given C
- Moralize all co-parents
- More challenging is that Lose marginal independence of parents.

Basically, it given an interference class of all directed graphical models and a class of all undirected graphical model are different but overlap each other.
Conclusion: In this article we have learnt about application of PGMs, how bayes network is related to markov's random field and conversion of bayes network into Markov's network model.
