Question:

In this question we consider conditional distributions for binary random variables, expressed as tables. 

a. A, B, C, and D are binary random variables. How many entries are in the following conditional probability tables and what is the sum of the values in each table?

(i) P(A | C) 

(ii) P(A, D | B = true, C = true) 

(iii) P(B | A = true, C, D) 

b. Consider the conditional distribution P(X1, . . . X  | Y1, . . . , Ym, Z1 = z1, . . . Zn = zn, represented as a complete table. Assuming that all variables are binary, derive expressions for the number of the probabilities in the table and their sum.
