Confidence of feedback information for improving quality. In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, a key to improved quality is having confidence in the feedback generated by production equipment. A study of the confidence level of feedback information was published in Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence(Vol. 26, 2013). At any point in time during the production process, a report can be generated. The report is classified as either 鈥淥K鈥 or 鈥渘ot OK.鈥 Let Arepresent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in any time period (t).Let Brepresent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in the next time period. Consider the following probabilities:

P(A)=0.8,PBA=0.9, andPBAC=0.5.

a. Express the event B|Ain the words of the problem.

b. Express the event B|ACin the words of the problem.

c. FindP(AC).

d. FindP(AB).

e. FindP(ACB).

f. Use the probabilities, parts d and e, to find P(B).

g. Use Bayes鈥 Rule to find P(A|B), i.e., the probability that an 鈥淥K鈥 report was generated in one time period(t), given that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in the next time period(t+1).

Short Answer

Expert verified

The results are as follows:

  1. The event B|A means that OK report id generated in time periodt+1granted that an OK report is generated time period (t).
  2. The event B|AC means that OK report id generated in time periodt+1granted that not OK report is generated time period (t).
  3. The value of compliment is 0.2.
  4. The value ofP(AB) is 0.72.
  5. The value ofP(ACB) is 0.1.
  6. The value of (B) is 0.82.
  7. The value of P|B is 0.82.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

P(A)=0.8PBA=0.9PBAC=0.5

Let A represent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in any time period (t).Let B represent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in the next time period .

02

Express the event B|A in the words of the problem.

A=[in the time period (t) an OK report id generated]

B=[ in the time periodt+1 an OK report id generated]

So,If an OK report is generated during time period t+1, then the event B|A indicates that it was done so (t).

03

Express the event B|AC in the words of the problem

Thereafter, unless a not-OK report is made during the time period t+1, the event B| denotes that an OK report was generated during that time period (t).

04

Find P(AC)

Apply the complementary rule

P(AC)=1-P(A)=1-0.8=0.2

Accordingly, the value of a compliment is 0.2

05

Evaluate P(A∩B)

P(AB)=PBAP(A)=(0.9)(0.8)=0.72

Henceforth, the value ofP(AB) is 0.72.

06

Determine P(AC∩B)

P(ACB)=PBACP(Ac)=(0.5)(0.2)=0.1

So, the value ofP(ACB) is 0.1.

07

Find P(B)

P(B)=P(AB)+P(ACB)=0.72+0.1=0.82

Hence, the value of (B) is 0.82.

08

Find P(A|B)

PA|B=P(AB)P(A)=P(A).P(B)P(A)=0.82

Therefore, the value of P|B is 0.82.

Exit poll candidates and voters.In an exit poll, 45% of voters said that the main issue affecting their choice of candidates was the economy, 35% said national security, and the remaining 20% were not sure. Suppose we select one of the voters who participated in the exit poll at random and ask for the main issue affecting his or her choice of candidates.

  1. List the sample points for this experiment.
  2. Assign reasonable probabilities to the sample points.
  3. What is the probability that the main issue affecting randomly selected voters鈥 choice was either the economy or national security?

Which events are independent?Use your intuitive understanding of independence to form an opinion about whether each of the following scenarios represents independent events.

a.The results of consecutive tosses of a coin.

b.The opinions of randomly selected individuals in a pre-election poll.

c.A Major League Baseball player's results in two consecutive at-bats.

d.The amount of gain or loss associated with investments in different stocks if these stocks are bought on the same day and sold on the same day 1 month later.

e.The amount of gain or loss associated with investments in different stocks bought and sold in different time periods, 5 years apart.

f.The prices bid by two different development firms in response to a building construction proposal.

Workers鈥 unscheduled absence survey. Each year CCH, Inc., a firm that provides human resources and employment law information, conducts a survey on absenteeism in the workplace. The latest CCH Unscheduled Absence Surveyfound that of all unscheduled work absences, 34% are due to 鈥減ersonal illness,鈥 22% for 鈥渇amily issues,鈥 18% for 鈥減ersonal needs,鈥 13% for 鈥渆ntitlement mentality,鈥 and 13% due to 鈥渟tress.鈥 Consider a randomly selected employee who has an unscheduled work absence.

a. List the sample points for this experiment.

b. Assign reasonable probabilities to the sample points.

c. What is the probability that the absence is due to something other than 鈥減ersonal illness鈥?

In a random sample of 106 social (or service) robots designed to entertain, educate, and care for human users, 63 were built with legs only, 20 with wheels only, 8 with both legs and wheels, and 15 with neither legs nor wheels. One of the 106 social robots is randomly selected and the design (e.g., wheels only) is noted.

  1. List the sample points for this study.
  2. Assign reasonable probabilities to the sample points.
  3. What is the probability that the selected robot is designed with wheels?
  4. What is the probability that the selected robot is designed with legs?

Simulate the experiment described in Exercise 3.7 using any five identically shaped objects, two of which are one colour and the three another colour. Mix the objects, draw two, record the results, and then replace the objects. Repeat the experiment a large number of times (at least 100). Calculate the proportion of time events A, B, and C occur. How do these proportions compare with the probabilities you calculated in Exercise 3.7? Should these proportions equal the probabilities? Explain.
