+% BEST_FIRST_ELIM_ORDER Greedily search for an optimal elimination order.
+% order = best_first_elim_order(moral_graph, node_sizes)
+%
+% Find an order in which to eliminate nodes from the graph in such a way as to try and minimize the
+% weight of the resulting triangulated graph.  The weight of a graph is the sum of the weights of each
+% of its cliques; the weight of a clique is the product of the weights of each of its members; the
+% weight of a node is the number of values it can take on.
+%
+% Since this is an NP-hard problem, we use the following greedy heuristic:
+% at each step, eliminate that node which will result in the addition of the least
+% number of fill-in edges, breaking ties by choosing the node that induces the lighest clique.
+% For details, see
+% - Kjaerulff, "Triangulation of graphs -- algorithms giving small total state space",
+%      Univ. Aalborg tech report, 1990 (www.cs.auc.dk/~uk)

+
+% For long DBNs, it may be useful to eliminate all the nodes in slice t before slice t+1.
+% This will ensure that the jtree has a repeating structure (at least away from both edges).
+% This is why we have stages.
+% See the discussion of splicing jtrees on p68 of
+% Geoff Zweig's PhD thesis, Dept. Comp. Sci., UC Berkeley, 1998.
+% This constraint can increase the clique size significantly.
