A cyber-security officer is investigating a cyber-crime case. The officer considers three hackers as the possible suspects in this case. The three hackers are H1, H2, H3, which are marginally independent from each other. There are four forensic evidences (E1, E2, E3, E4) which the officer wants to check for presence in order to find the most probable suspect based on the findings. The forensic evidences are conditionally dependent to the three hackers as they have known attack styles as follows: E1 depends only on H1, E2 depends on H1 and H2. E3 is depends on H1 and H3, whereas E4 depends only on H3. Assume all random variables are Boolean, they are either “true” or “false”. Draw the Bayesian network for this problem. Write down the expression for the joint probability distribution as a product of conditional probabilities P (H1, H2, H3, E1, E2, E3, E4). If we assume that the variables are not conditionally independent, what would be the number of independent parameters that is required to describe this joint distribution?

A psychologist develops a test to detect malingering in criminal defendants who have entered NGRI (not guilty by reason of insanity) pleas. (Malingering is faking psychological symptoms for the purpose of secondary gain, such as avoiding time in prison.) She wants her test to be able to distinguish between those who really are experiencing psychotic symptoms and those who are faking. She recruits 30 individuals from a local psychiatric facility. All 30 have been independently diagnosed with a psychotic disorder (with symptoms of hallucinations and delusions). The patients are group 1; they are given the test with instructions to respond honestly. The comparison group consists of 30 inmates at a local jail who have exhibited no significant signs of mental illness. The inmates are group 2; they are given the test with instructions to make it look like they are psychotic (i.e., that they have hallucinations and delusions). They are further told that they are trying to “fool the experts.”…
The production department of Celltronics International wants to explore the relationship between the number of employees who assemble a subassembly and the number produced. As an experiment, 2 employees were assigned to assemble the subassemblies. They produced 11 during a one-hour period. Then 4 employees assembled them. They produced 18 during a one-hour period. The complete set of paired observations follows. Number ofAssemblers One-HourProduction (units) 2 11 4 18 1 5 5 23 3 18 The dependent variable is production; that is, it is assumed that different levels of production result from a different number of employees.

On the graph below, use the point tool to plot the point corresponding to the first Number of Assemblers and her Production (No of Assemblers1). Repeat the process for the remainder of the sample (No of Assemblers2,…
A computer store sells three types of microcomputers, brand A, brand B, and brand C. Of the computers they sell, 65% are brand A, 30% are brand B, and 5% are brand C. They have found that 15% of the brand A computers, 10% of the brand B computers, and 5% of brand C computers are returned for service during the warranty period. If a computer is returned for service during the warranty period, what is the probability that it is a brand A computer? A brand B computer?

A Dinner Club goes out to eat once a week. It visits three kinds of restaurants, Asian, Mediterranean, and Mexican, but they never visit the same type of restaurant two weeks in a row. If they go to an Asian restaurant one week then they are equally likely to go to a Mediterranean as a Mexican the next week. If they go to a Mediterranean restaurant one week then they are two times as likely to to go to an Asian as a Mexican the next week. If they go to a Mexican restaurant one week then they are three times as likely to go to an Asian as a Mediterranean the next week. If we think of this as a Markov Chain in which state 1 is Asian, state 2 is Mediterranean, and state 3 is Mexican, then what is the transition matrix? w - - - /2 ½ (A) (B) 2 1 2/3 (C) 1/2 (D) 1/2 1 % 1½½ 0 1/3 1 1 2 2 (E) 2/2 0 3 (F) 22 1 ½ /3 (G) 1/2 (H) A O D O E OF G
It is suspected that the higher-priced automobiles are assembled with greater care than lower- priced automobiles. To investigate whether there is any basis for this feeling, a large luxury model A, a medium-size sedan B, and a subcompact hatchback C were compared for defects when they arrived at the dealer's showroom. All cars were manufactured by the same company. The number of defects for several of the three models are recorded below. Number of Automobile Defects Model A В 4 8 7 1 6. 6. 8 5 9. 3 4 Total 23 21 36 80 Test the hypothesis at the 0.05 level of significance that the average number of defects is the same for the three models.

Your daughter is doing a case study with my husband to know which devices are used by the students in their online classes. As such, a survey was conducted to 100 engineering students at PUP. 54 of them use smartphone, 37 use laptop and 24 of the respondents use iPad. 21 of them use both smartphone and laptop. 13 of them use both iPad and smartphone. In addition to that, 18 of them use both iPad and laptop. Only 9 of the respondents use all the three devices in their online class. Those who do not have any devices are studying through modular approach. How many respondents are modular?

You're a sociologist studying whether grocery prices are different in the inner cities than they are in the suburbs. To investigate this, you pick a random set of items (a basket of goods), and then send shoppers to buy these items at an inner city (IC) grocery, and also at a suburban (SU) grocery. You pick 30 different baskets of goods, so your secret shoppers buy 30 baskets, once at the inner city store, and once at a suburban store.The data is given in the dataset named "ICvSU_3095.xls", which you can find in data folder under Course Documents. Prices could be higher in the inner city because of discrimination, or they could be higher in the suburbs because of the greater disposable income. Use Excel to test the research hypothesis that inner city prices are different than the suburb's prices. The null hypothesis is that inner city prices are equal to suburban prices. You test at the alpha = 0.05 significance level. What do you conclude? Are prices the same? Who has higher prices?…
