    In this paper we discuss the issue of learning Bayesian networks whose conditional probability tables (CPTs) are either noisy-or models or general CPTs. We refer to these models as Mixed Noisy-Or Bayesian Networks. In order to learn the structure of such Bayesian networks we modify the Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC) used for general Bayesian networks so that it reflects the number of parameters of a noisy-or model. We prove the log-likelihood function of a noisy-or model has a unique maximum and adapt the EM-learning method for leaky noisy-or models. We evaluate the proposed approach on synthetic data where it performs substantially better than general BNs. We apply this approach also to a problem from the domain of linguistics. We use Mixed Noisy-Or Bayesian Networks to model spread of loanwords in the South-East Asia Archipelago. We perform numerical experiments in which we compare prediction ability of general Bayesian Networks with Mixed Noisy-Or Bayesian Networks.
