The problem of exact structure learning is to find a network structure that is optimal under certain scoring criteria. The problem is known to be NP-hard and the existing methods are both computationally and memory intensive. In this paper, we introduce a new approach for exact structure learning. Our strategy is to leverage relationship between a partial network structure and the remaining variables to constraint the number of ways in which the partial network can be optimally extended.
