The MTE model (Mixtures of Truncated Exponentials) allows discrete parents of continuous variables. This model is implemented in the Elvira software ( http://leo.ugr.es/elvira )
References on MTEs can be found in my web site. Also Prakash Shenoy and Barry Cobb have studied this model. Best regards, Antonio Salmeron Dpt.
