In this paper we introduce a new unique vector representative, called the characteristic imset, obtained from the standard imset by an affine transformation. Characteristic imsets are (shown to be) zero-one vectors and have many elegant properties, suitable for intended application of linear/integer programming methods to learning BN structure. They are much closer to the graphical description; we describe a simple transition between the characteristic imset and the essential graph, known as a traditional unique graphical representative of the BN structure. In the end, we relate our proposal to other recent approaches which apply linear programming methods in probabilistic reasoning.
