[[File:P_ID2752__Inf_Z_3_2_neu.png|right|frame|$\rm PMF$ of the two-dimensional  random variable  $XY$]]
Wir betrachten die Zufallsgrößen  $X =  \{ 0,\ 1,\ 2,\ 3 \}$  und  $Y =  \{ 0,\ 1,\ 2 \}$, deren gemeinsame Wahrscheinlichkeitsfunktion  $P_{XY}(X,\ Y)$  gegeben ist.

We consider the random variables  $X =  \{ 0,\ 1,\ 2,\ 3 \}$  and  $Y =  \{ 0,\ 1,\ 2 \}$, whose joint probability mass function  $P_{XY}(X,\ Y)$  is given.
*Aus dieser 2D–Wahrscheinlichkeitsfunktion sollen die eindimensionalen Wahrscheinlichkeitsfunktionen  $P_X(X)$  und  $P_Y(Y)$  ermittelt werden.
+
*From this two-dimensional  probability mass function  $\rm (PMF)$,  the one-dimensional probability mass functions  $P_X(X)$  and  $P_Y(Y)$  are to be determined.
*Man nennt eine solche 1D–Wahrscheinlichkeitsfunktion manchmal auch Randwahrscheinlichkeit  (englisch:  ''Marginal Probability'').
+
*Such a one-dimensional probability mass function is sometimes also called  "marginal probability".
  
  
Gilt   $P_{XY}(X,\ Y) = P_X(X) \cdot P_Y(Y)$, so sind die beiden Zufallsgrößen  $X$  und  $Y$  statistisch unabhängig.  Andernfalls bestehen zwischen diesen statistische Bindungen.
+
If  $P_{XY}(X,\ Y) = P_X(X) \cdot P_Y(Y)$, the two random variables  $X$  and  $Y$  are statistically independent.  Otherwise, there are statistical dependencies between them.
  
Im zweiten Teil der Aufgabe betrachten wir die Zufallsgrößen  $U=  \big \{ 0,\ 1 \big \}$  und  $V= \big  \{ 0,\ 1 \big \}$, die sich aus  $X$  und  $Y$  durch Modulo–2–Operationen ergeben:

In the second part of the task we consider the random variables  $U=  \big \{ 0,\ 1 \big \}$  and  $V= \big  \{ 0,\ 1 \big \}$,  which result from  $X$  and  $Y$  by modulo-2 operations:

$\rm PMF$ of the two-dimensional random variable  $XY$

We consider the random variables  $X = \{ 0,\ 1,\ 2,\ 3 \}$  and  $Y = \{ 0,\ 1,\ 2 \}$, whose joint probability mass function  $P_{XY}(X,\ Y)$  is given.

  • From this two-dimensional probability mass function  $\rm (PMF)$,  the one-dimensional probability mass functions  $P_X(X)$  and  $P_Y(Y)$  are to be determined.
  • Such a one-dimensional probability mass function is sometimes also called  "marginal probability".


If  $P_{XY}(X,\ Y) = P_X(X) \cdot P_Y(Y)$, the two random variables  $X$  and  $Y$  are statistically independent.  Otherwise, there are statistical dependencies between them.

In the second part of the task we consider the random variables  $U= \big \{ 0,\ 1 \big \}$  and  $V= \big \{ 0,\ 1 \big \}$,  which result from  $X$  and  $Y$  by modulo-2 operations:

$$U = X \hspace{0.1cm}\text{mod} \hspace{0.1cm} 2, \hspace{0.3cm} V = Y \hspace{0.1cm}\text{mod} \hspace{0.1cm} 2.$$





Hints:

  • The exercise belongs to the chapter  Some preliminary remarks on two-dimensional random variables.
  • The same constellation is assumed here as in  Exercise 3.2.
  • There the random variables  $Y = \{ 0,\ 1,\ 2,\ 3 \}$  were considered, but with the addition  ${\rm Pr}(Y = 3) = 0$.
  • The property  $|X| = |Y|$  forced in this way was advantageous in the previous task for the formal calculation of the expected value.

Determine the probabilities  $P_{UV}( U,\ V)$.

$P_{UV}( U = 0,\ V = 0) \ = \ $

$P_{UV}( U = 0,\ V = 1) \ = \ $

$P_{UV}( U = 1,\ V = 0) \ = \ $

$P_{UV}( U =1,\ V = 1) \ = \ $

5

Are the random variables  $U$  and  $V$  statistically independent?

Yes,
No.


Solution

(1)  You get from  $P_{XY}(X,\ Y)$  to the one-dimensional probability mass function  $P_X(X)$ by summing up all  $Y$ probabilities:

$$P_X(X = x_{\mu}) = \sum_{y \hspace{0.05cm} \in \hspace{0.05cm} Y} \hspace{0.1cm} P_{XY}(x_{\mu}, y).$$
  • One thus obtains the following numerical values:
$$P_X(X = 0) = 1/4+1/8+1/8 = 1/2 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.500},$$
$$P_X(X = 1)= 0+0+1/8 = 1/8 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.125},$$
$$P_X(X = 2) = 0+0+0 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0}$$
$$P_X(X = 3) = 1/4+1/8+0=3/8 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.375}\hspace{0.5cm} \Rightarrow \hspace{0.5cm} P_X(X) = \big [ 1/2, \ 1/8 , \ 0 , \ 3/8 \big ].$$


(2)  Analogous to sub-task   (1) , the following now holds:

$$P_Y(Y = y_{\kappa}) = \sum_{x \hspace{0.05cm} \in \hspace{0.05cm} X} \hspace{0.1cm} P_{XY}(x, y_{\kappa})$$
$$P_Y(Y= 0) = 1/4+0+0+1/4 = 1/2 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.500},$$
$$P_Y(Y = 1) = 1/8+0+0+1/8 = 1/4 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.250},$$
$$P_Y(Y = 2) = 1/8+1/8+0+0 = 1/4 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.250} \hspace{0.5cm} \Rightarrow \hspace{0.5cm} P_Y(Y= 0) = \big [ 1/2, \ 1/4 , \ 1/4 ].$$


(3)  With statistical independence,  $P_{XY}(X,Y)= P_X(X) \cdot P_Y(Y)$  should be.

  • This does not apply here:     answer   NO.


(4)  Starting from the left-hand table   ⇒   $P_{XY}(X,Y)$,  we arrive at the middle table   ⇒   $P_{UY}(U,Y)$,
by combining certain probabilities according to  $U = X \hspace{0.1cm}\text{mod} \hspace{0.1cm} 2$.

If one also takes into account  $V = Y \hspace{0.1cm}\text{mod} \hspace{0.1cm} 2$, one obtains the probabilities sought according to the right-hand table:

Different probability functions
$$P_{UV}( U = 0, V = 0) = 3/8 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.375},$$
$$P_{UV}( U = 0, V = 1) = 3/8 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.375},$$
$$P_{UV}( U = 1, V = 0) = 1/8 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.125},$$
$$P_{UV}( U = 1, V = 1) = 1/8 \hspace{0.15cm}\underline{= 0.125}.$$


(5)  The correct answer is   YES:

  • The corresponding one-dimensional probability mass functions are:  
$$P_U(U) = \big [1/2 , \ 1/2 \big ],$$
$$P_V(V)=\big [3/4, \ 1/4 \big ].$$
  • Thus:  $P_{UV}(U,V) = P_U(U) \cdot P_V(V)$   ⇒   $U$  and  $V$  are statistically independent.
