Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a network of symptoms and diseases, if Disease A causes Symptom X and Symptom Y, how would you determine if Symptom X and Symptom Y are conditionally independent given Disease A?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the chain of causation.

Question 2

Construct a scenario with three random variables where two of them are conditionally independent given a third. Illustrate this with a diagram.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Visualize the relationships clearly to spot dependencies.
