Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You're working on a new software application. You initially assign weights based on the importance of user features: Usability - 0.4, Performance - 0.3, Essential Functions - 0.3. After a user testing session, you discover Usability scored 6 out of 10, Performance 8 out of 10, and Essential Functions 5 out of 10. How would you update the weights using Bayes’ theorem?

💡 Hint: Break down the problem into calculating initial scores followed by redistributing the weights.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss a scenario where the Bayesian Decision Matrix could lead to a misinterpretation of user needs. Illustrate how the presence of bias might distort the weights.

💡 Hint: Consider scenarios where a biased sample might lead to skewed results.
