Hello Edward community! I have seen a few posts on here about doing inference on bayesian networks with Edward, but none have addressed parameter learning. To test this out, I am working with a VERY simple BN; a subgraph of the canonical wet grass BN :smirk:. In particular, I’m just looking to est…

I noticed a typo in the edward model, ‘p_c_0:propose_dist_3’ should be ’p_c_0:propose_dist_2’

Great! Any release of entire code in notebook?

Thank you @rrtucci!!! Fixing that typo appears to have done the trick…
