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.

An experiment results in one of three mutually exclusive events, A, B, or C. It is known that P (A)= .30, P(B)= .55 , and P(C)= .15. Find each of the following probabilities:

a. P(AB)

b.P(AC)

c. P (A/B)

d. P(BC)

e. Are B and C independent events? Explain.

For two events, A and B, P(A)= .4, P(B)= .2 , and P(AB) = .1:

a. Find P (A/B).

b. Find P(B/A).

c. Are A and B independent events?

Patient medical instruction sheets. Physicians and pharmacists sometimes fail to inform patients adequately about the proper application of prescription drugs and about the precautions to take in order to avoid potential side effects. One method of increasing patients鈥 awareness of the problem is for physicians to provide patient medication instruction (PMI) sheets. The American Medical Association, however, has found that only 20% of the doctors who prescribe drugs frequently distribute PMI sheets to their patients. Assume that 20% of all patients receive the PMI sheet with their prescriptions and that 12% receive the PMI sheet and are hospitalized because of a drug-related problem. What is the probability that a person will be hospitalized for a drug-related problem given that the person received the PMI sheet?

Risk of a natural gas pipeline accident. Process Safety Progress (December 2004) published a risk analysis for a natural gas pipeline between Bolivia and Brazil. The most likely scenario for an accident would be natural gas leakage from a hole in the pipeline. The probability that the leak ignites immediately (causing a jet fire) is .01. If the leak does not immediately ignite, it may result in a delayed ignition of a gas cloud. Given no immediate ignition, the probability of delayed ignition (causing a flash fire) is .01. If there is no ignition, the gas cloud will harmlessly disperse. Suppose a leak occurs in the natural gas pipeline. Find the probability that either a jet or flash fire will occur. Illustrate with a tree diagram.

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.
