In this paper, we introduce a class of a directed acyclic graph on the assumption that the collection of random variables indexed by the vertices has a Markov property. We present a flexible approach for the study of the exact distributions of runs and scans on the directed acyclic graph by...

Bayesian networks are graphical models that represent the joint distribution of a set of variables using directed acyclic graphs. The graph can be manually built by domain experts according to their knowledge. However, when the dependence structure is unknown (or partially known) the network has...
