Visual Representation of Probability

Probability is the branch of mathematics using numerical values to describe how likely an event or proposition is true. The numerical value varies between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates impossibility and 1 indicates certainty. We think our lives unfold thanks to a mix of luck and our own personal choices. However, we tend to overlook the Examples of probability include: layer of mathematics that governs every aspect of our world. • When a fair coin is flipped, the probability of either “heads” or “tails” The “chance” that we often speak of is often related to is 1/2. probability. The “choices” that we make are influenced by computer algorithms. • When rolling a die, the probability of getting a 3 is 1/6. Understanding these aspects helps us make better choices and sort fact from fiction. However, putting too • When drawing a card from a shuffled much trust and getting the sums wrong can lead to deck, the probability of drawing the 1/6 disaster. Aces of Spades is 1/52.

6 STAR LECTURE 2020 STAR LECTURE 2020 7 NORMAL Normal Distribution Distribution

Coin flipping is an independent event. It means that the outcome of the 2nd flip is not influenced by the outcome of the 1st flip. Regardless of the result of the 1st flip, the Graph nd probability of the 2 flip to get a “heads” is still 1/2. As we further increase the number of coin flips, the bar chart will start to take the shape of a normal distribution curve: An equation used to calculate probability of an event (A) occurring is:

Number of ways Event A can occur Probability of event A = Total number of Possible Outcomes 0.4 So, what will happen if we flip 2 coins? There is a total of 4 possible outcomes as shown in the table below: 0.3 Outcome 1st Flip 2nd Flip

1 “Heads” “Heads” 0.2 34.1% 34.1% 2 “Heads” “Tails” 0.1 2.1% 2.1% 0.1% 0.1% 3 “Tails” “Heads” 13.6% 13.6% 0.0 4 “Tails” “Tails” -3σ -2σ -1σ 0 1σ 2σ 3σ

When we represent this probability in the When we increase the number of coin flips form of a bar chart, we get: to 4, the bar chart will then look like this: The normal distribution is a probability function that Probability of all outcomes for Probability of all outcomes for describe how values of a variable are distributed.

Predicting volcanic eruptions Understanding the limitations of probability is You’re pregnant crucial to utilising it effectively. One such limitation is known as “Type I and type II error”. Type I error refers to giving a false positive (e.g. telling a patient he has COVID-19 while in reality, he does not have it) while type II error refers to By looking out for these signs, scientist can giving a false negative (e.g. telling a patient he increase their certainty of whether a does not have COVID-19 while in reality he volcano is near eruption and offer more does). accurate predictions. Type l error Such errors can have huge impact in areas like Mount Fuji, an (false positive) Ball touch event data the medical field. An example is given below: active stratovolcano in Japan You’re not Assuming there is an illness that affects 10 When scientists tell governments or the pregnant people out of every 100. The test for such an general public about the potential of a illness has an accuracy of 80% (20% of the time disaster hitting, they often use probabilities. the test result will be incorrect). For volcanos, there are various signs and symptoms scientists look out for prior to their eruption.

From the table above, we can see that of all the tests showing positive, Analysing these data allow players to 18 out of 26 are actually healthy. This is the reason why the same medical test has to be run evaluate their performance after the game. multiple times on the same patient, to effectively reduce errors in the test. 10 STAR LECTURE 2020 STAR LECTURE 2020 11 Cognitive Prisoner’s Bias Dilemma

A cognitive bias is a systematic error in thinking that affects decisions and Game theory is the study of mathematical models of strategic interaction between rational judgements that people make. A demonstration was done in the 2019 Christmas players. An example of game theory is the prisoner’s dilemma. Lecture where audience were told to “pick a number, completely at random, between 1 and 10”. We would assume that approximately 10% of the audience In the prisoner’s dilemma, 2? criminals, A and B, are given 2 choices, either to confess or to would have picked each number. However, the result shows that barely anyone stay silent. They are not allowed contact with each other, thus A have no idea what choice picked the number 1 or 10 while the number 7 was most popular. did B make, and vice versa. The result of their choices are as follows:

• If A and B both choose to confess, each of them serves 2 years in prison • If A confesses, while B stays silent, A will be set free and B will serve 3 years in prison • If B confesses, while A stays silent, B will be set free and A will serve 3 years in prison • If A and B both choose to stay silent, both will each serve 1 year in prison

The above can be summarised in the following table:

B stays silent B confesses

A will get 1 year A will get 3 years A stays silent B will get 1 year B will be free A will be free A will get 2 years A confesses B will get 3 years B will get 2 years

From the table above, it is clear to us that the optimal choice would be for both A and B to stay silent, resulting in a total of 2 years served between both. The least optimal choice Number of people would be for both to confess, resulting in a total of 4 years served between both. who chose 7 was asked to stand up However, if we view the situation from the perspective of A, assuming B stays silent: Attempts by Mathematician Dr at explaining this phenomenon in the 2019 Christmas Lecture includes the number 1 B stays silent B confesses and 10 being too extreme, 5 being “too much in the middle” and after more A stays silent A will get 1 year processes of elimination, ends up with the number 7. A confesses A will be free Perhaps you can try this out at your next gathering to see if it turns out to be true. From the table above, it seems clear that the choice which benefits A the most would be to confess if B chooses to stay silent. What if B chooses to confess?

One of the first uses of computer stimulation occurs during the World War II. During the Manhattan Project, nuclear bombs were developed. Physical testing of these bombs could not be conducted widely. Thus, computer stimulation was brought in to model the process of nuclear ? detonation. 14 STAR LECTURE 2020 ?

For example, imagine you are teaching a computer to learn to flip a coin. One way (a non-Bayesian way) for the computer to learn is to flip the coin 10 times, and to record down the number of “Heads” and Generation and reconstruction of 3D shapes “Tails” it ends up with. However, with 10 from single or multi-view depth maps flips, it is unlikely for the result to show Generation and reconstruction of 3D shapes from single or multi-view depth maps, Arsi Warrior, licensed under Creative Commons exactly 5 “Heads” and 5 “Tails”. Perhaps the Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International result achieved is 7 “Heads” and 3 “Tails”. One of the most common applications of We know that the coin’s probability of machine learning is image recognition. landing on “Heads” to be . Using Bayesian Image recognition involves creating a machine learning, you can input this neural network that process individual pixel knowledge into the computer, allowing the of an image. Programmers “teach” these computer to come up with a more accurate networks by inputting as many pre-labelled model for flipping a coin. images, a dog for example, as they can, Thomas Bayes, allowing the programme to “learn” what formulator of Bayes’ theorem important features to look out for. The computer then develops a general idea of what an image a dog should have in it. Bayesian machine learning enables the When a new image is introduced to the programmer to input prior knowledge into computer, it compares this image to every the machine, regardless of what the data picture of a dog it has ever seen. If the new might tell us. This is particularly useful when image has a high level of feature similarity dealing with small data sets that might result in error in the algorithms that the to the computer’s internal representation of machine writes by itself. “dogs”, the computer will then declare that it is a dog.
