  8. val comparator: Option[(Double, Double) ⇒ Boolean]

    Some variable elimination algorithms, such as computing the most probable explanation, record values of variables as they are eliminated.

    Some variable elimination algorithms, such as computing the most probable explanation, record values of variables as they are eliminated. Such values are stored in a factor that maps values of the other variables to a value of the eliminated variable. This factor is produced by finding the value of the variable that "maximizes" the entry associated with the value in the product factor resulting from eliminating this variable, for some maximization function. The recordingFunction determines which of two entries is greater according to the maximization function. It returns true iff the second entry is greater. The recording function is an option so that variable elimination algorithms that do not use it can ignore it.

    Get the elements that are needed by the query target variables and the evidence variables. Also compute the values of those variables to the given depth. Only get factors for elements that are actually used by the target variables. This is more efficient. Also, it avoids problems when values of unused elements have not been computed.

    In addition to getting all the needed elements, it determines if any of the conditioned, constrained, or dependent universe parent elements has * in its range. If any of these elements has * in its range, the lower and upper bounds of factors will be different, so we need to compute both. If they don't, we don't need to compute bounds.
