Abstract:Depending on the interpretation of the type of edges, a chain graph can represent different relations between variables and thereby independence models. Three interpretations, known by the acronyms LWF, MVR, and AMP, are prevalent. We review Markov properties for MVR chain graphs and propose an alternative local Markov property for them. Except for pairwise Markov properties, we show that for MVR chain graphs all Markov properties in the literature are equivalent for semigraphoids. We derive a new factorizatio… Show more
