Previous work has shown that the problem of learning the optimal structure of a Bayesian network can be formulated as a shortest path find-ing problem in a graph and solved using A* search. In this paper, we improve the scalabil-ity of this approach by developing a memory-efficient heuristic search algorithm for learning the structure of a Bayesian network. Instead of using A*, we propose a frontier breadth-first branch and bound search that leverages the layered structure of the search graph of this prob-lem so that no more than two layers of the graph, plus solution reconstruction information, need to be stored in memory at a time. To further improve scalability, the algorithm stores most of the graph in external memory, such as hard disk...
