# Instructions: 12 FRQ, written answers 3 MCQ, multiple choice 1 Matching question, algorithms (role of algorithms) 15 total questions (?) 1 A4 size double sided hand written notes allowed (Important!!!) 2 hour exam Partial marks allowed for partially correct answers Bring a calculator (Important!!!) # Part 1 Important Questions Horn form for logic? Why are these conditions not solvable without a truth table? # Part 2 Important Questions ## 1 Arithmetic assertions can be written in first order logic with the predicate symbol <, the function symbols + and x, and the constant symbols 0 and 1. Additional predicates can also be defined with bi-conditionals a) Represent the property "x is and even number" Ax Even(x) <=> Ey x=y+y b) Represent the property "x is prime" Ax Prime(x) <=> Ey,z x=y * z => y = 1 V z = 1 c) Goldbach's conjecture is the conjecture (unproven as of yet) that "every even number is equal to the sum of two primes". Represent this conjecture as a logical sentence. Ax Even(x)=> Ey,z Prime(y) /\ Prime(z) /\ x=y+z # 2 Find the values for the probabilities a and b in joint probability table below so that the binary variables X and Y are independent | X | Y | P(X, Y) | | --- | --- | ------- | | t | t | 3/5 | | t | f | 1/5 | | f | t | a | | f | f | b | Due to probability being max 1, we know that a + b must be 1/5 P(Yt)/P(Yf) = a/b = 3 b = 1/20 a = 3/20 # 3 idk where R comes from, look into slides about bayes theorem Show the three forms of independence in Equation (12.11) are equivalent P(a|b) = P(a) or P(b|a) = P(b) or P(a /\ b) = P(a) * P(b) / R(?) First two are logically the same, just inverted From bayes theorem P(a | b) * P(b) = P(a) * P(b) / R(?) P(a /\ b) = P(a | b) * P(b) # 4 Consider the following propability distrobutions: | A | P(A) | | --- | ---- | | t | 0.8 | | f | 0.2 | | A | B | P(B\|A) | | --- | --- | ------- | | t | t | 0.9 | | t | f | 0.1 | | f | t | 0.6 | | f | f | 0.4 | | B | C | P(C\|B) | | --- | --- | ------- | | t | t | 0.8 | | t | f | 0.2 | | f | t | 0.8 | | f | f | 0.2 | Given these tables and no other assumptions, calculate the following probabilities. a. P(a, ~b) = P(a) * P(~b|a) = 0.8 * 0.1 = 0.08 b. P(b) = P(bt|a) * P(a) + P(bt | ~a) * P(~a) = 0.9 * 0.8 + 0.6 * 0.2 = 0.84 # 5 Let A and B be Boolean Random variables. You are given the following probabilities P(A=true) = 0.5 P(B=true |A=true) = 1 P(B=true) = 0.75 What is P(B=true|A=false)? # 6 Consider the XOR function of three binary input attributes, which produces the value 1 if and only if an odd number of the three input attributes has value 1. Draw a minimal sized decision tree for the three input XOR function. Three layer decision three, A > B > C. Output of tree would be 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 if on the left of the decision is always 0 and 1 is right # 7 Consider the problem of separating N data points into +ve and -ve examples using a linear separator. Clearly this can always be done for N=2 points on a line of dimension d=1, regardless of how many points are labeled or where they are located (unless the points are in the same place) a) Show that it can always be done for N=3 points on a plane of dimension d=2 unless they are co-linear. b) Show that it cannot (or can we?) always be done for N=4 points on a plane of dimension d=2
