Multiply sectioned Bayesian network(MSBN) is an extension of Bayesian network(BN) model for the support of flexible modelling in large and complex problem domains. However, current MSBN inference methods involve extensive intra-subnet(internal) and inter-subnet (external) message passings. In this paper, we present a new MSBN message passing scheme which substantially reduces the total number of message passings. By saving on both internal and external messages, our method improves the overall efficiency of MSBN inference compared with existing methods. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
