Key Concepts

Bayes' Theorem

Bayes' Theorem provides a way to update our probability estimates for an event based on new evidence. It connects the conditional probabilities P(A|B) and P(B|A) and allows us to reverse the conditioning between events using the relationship P(A|B) = [P(B|A) × P(A)] / P(B).

Conditional Probability

This concept measures the probability of an event occurring given that another event has already occurred. Represented as P(A|B), it quantifies the likelihood of event A happening under the condition that B is known to have taken place.

Joint Probability

Joint probability refers to the probability of two events happening at the same time, often denoted as P(A ? B). It is closely related to conditional probability through the equation P(A ? B) = P(A|B) × P(B), which bridges the occurrence of both events simultaneously.
