Hi guys, is there a way to get a joint marginal distribution over multiple variables? E.g., in the sprinkler/rain example of Kevin Murphy's (as described in this post: http://community.research.microsoft.com/forums/t/2434.aspx), is there a way to get the joint distribution of both rain and sprinkler? Thanks.

Hi Harr
As discussed in http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/cambridge/projects/infernet/docs/Running%20inference.aspx , Infer.NET primarily makes of fully factorised approximations, so the joint marginal is just the product of the univariate marginals.
