+ <p>
+ This page documents all the tools within the dlib library that relate
+ to the construction and evaluation of Bayesian networks. If you want
+ a quick introduction to the tools then you should consult the
+ Bayesian Net <a href="bayes_net_ex.cpp.html">example program</a>.
+
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The
+ library also comes with a graphical application to assist in the
+ creation of bayesian networks. This application is one of the
+ <a href="bayes_net_gui_ex.cpp.html">example programs</a>, so to use it
+ you have to compile it yourself.
