1. Probability space
and
Probability table
P ( M h ∩W s )=0.2, P ( M s ∩W f )=0.05
3 3
1=P ( M h ) + p ( M s ) =∑ P( M h ∩W ( i ) )+ ∑ P(M s ∩W (i ) ¿ ) ¿
i=1 i=1
2) Conditional probability
P ( M h ∩W s ) 0.5
P ( M h|W s ¿= =
P(W s ) 0.7
You are confined in the room not to see outside. If you are happy. Predict
the weather
P ( W s ∩ M h ) 0.5
P ( W s|M h ) = =
P( M h ) 0.6
P ( W r ∩ M h ) 0. 0 5
P ( W r|M h ) = =
P(M h ) 0.6
P ( W f ∩ M h ) 0.05
P ( W f |M h )= =
P(M h) 0.6
%% Kim’s comment :
P ( B| A i ) P ( A i )
P ( A i|B )=
P( B)
== posterior probability
- Since
n
P ( B )=∑ P ( B| A j ) P( A j )
j=1
- P ( B| A i ) may be called the conditional marginal prob. i.e., it is a marginal regarding “B”
