Exercise 10.5 - Bayes nets for a rainy day

Answers

We first write down the entire probability:

p ( V , G , R , S ) = p ( V ) p ( G ) p ( R | V , G ) p ( S | G ) .

For question (a), we have:

p ( S = 0 | V = 1 ) = p ( S = 0 , V = 1 ) p ( V = 1 ) = 1 p ( V = 1 ) R , G { 0 , 1 } p ( V = 1 , G , R , S = 0 ) = 0.2 𝛼𝛾 + 0.8 𝛼𝛾 + 0.1 ( 1 α ) β + 0.9 ( 1 α ) β = 𝛼𝛾 + ( 1 α ) β .

For question (b), the answer is exactly the same. Since given G , S is independent from V .

For question (c), we independently estimate δ , α , γ and β :

δ = 1 , α = 1 3 , γ = 1 , β = 0 .

from counting.
