A decision support system supports investment decisions. The decision
support system includes a decision support engine and a Bayesian network.
The Bayesian network is traversed by the decision support engine. The
Bayesian network includes an investment decision node, potential
investment nodes, and information nodes. The investment decision node
identifies an investment decision. The potential investment nodes
identify potential investments. The information nodes identify
information to be obtained. The information to be obtained is matched to
potential investments. Reliability of the information is estimated, for
example, with the help of domain experts.
