Abstract: A dataset query tool is disclosed, the query tool including a dataset having a plurality of attributes, wherein each of the attributes has one of a plurality of potential values, a processor adapted to develop a model of the dataset and calculate a posterior probability of at least one of the attributes of the dataset, wherein the model represents an approximation of the joint probability distribution of the dataset, a user interface in communication with the processor, wherein the user interface provides a means for a user to selectively identify values for at least one of the attributes of the dataset and selectively query at least one of the other attributes for a posterior probability calculation based on the identified values.
