We will use JMPin to generate random samples from these distributions and explore their characteristics. Binomial The ...

... Probability 1) A deli offers sandwiches with three choices of bread (white, wheat, or rye). There are also three choices for meat (ham, roast beef, and turkey), and a choice of mayo or no mayo. Make a tree diagram that represents all the possible combinations of bread, meat, and mayo. Then use the t ...

... 1. Show that P [X|V−X ] = P [X|M B(X)], e.i. a variable is conditionally independent of all other variables given its Markov Blanket. Use the fact that X is conditionally independent of all its non-descendants given its parents (this is true by construction of the Bayesian Network). Be sure to speci ...

Determine the probability that this region will have two or three earthquakes with this magnitude in the next 50 years (design life of a new structure). b. If the service life of an old structure is 30 years, w ...
