a. P(a,b) = P(a|b)P(b)
b. P(a,b|c) = P(a|c)P(b|c)

Q6. Consider the following Bayesian network along with the conditional probabilities given below. What is the value of P(C | D,E)? Give the answer as a decimal rounded to 2 decimal places (for example, 0.12 for 0.1234)

P(A) = 0.5, P(B) = 0.4, P(C| A,B) = 0.9, P(C| ¬A,B) = 0.5, P(C| A,¬B) = 0.2, P(C| ¬A,¬B) = 0.1, P(D | C) = 0.8, P(D| ¬C) = 0.2, P(E | C) = 0.1, P(E | ¬C) = 0.4.

Q7. In the above question, which are the evidence and hidden variables for the computation of P(C | D,E)? Return the answer as evidence variables followed by hidden variables separated by a %, where each group is lexicographically sorted (eg. if evidence is C and D and hidden variable is A, return CD%A).

Answer: DE%AB


Q8. Consider the following joint probability matrix. Each row contains a value for x and each column contains a value for y. What is the value of P(y=2|x=2)? Give the answer as a decimal rounded to 2 decimal places (for example, 0.12 for 0.123)
