For anyone that has trouble wrapping their head around why variable elimination is more efficient, writing out the explicit for loops to compute P(Y) was really helpful for me: If we assume W,X,Y,Z each have K possible values then we need to compute K^4 values to fill out the complete table for P(Y). The naive triple sum has K^3 terms and we need to compute this triple sum for each of the K possible values of Y, giving us a total of K^4 values. If we do variable elimination then we first compute f_W(x): for each value of X, call this x: f_W(x) = 0 for each value of W, call this w: f_W(x) += P(w)*P(x|w) Note: - big capital letters denote the random variable, lower case letters denote a value of the corresponding random variable. - f_W(x) is a table containing K numbers, one for each value of X - the innermost operation is "constant time" because we are just looking up these values in a table. - in total it takes K^2 operations to compute the f_W(x) table and then we store it away. Next we compute f_X(y): for each value of Y, call this y: f_X(y) = 0 for each value of X, call this x: f_X(y) += P(y|x) * f_W(x) Note: - f_X(y) is a table containing K numbers, one for each value of Y - the innermost operation is "constant time" because we are just looking up these values in a table! - in total it takes K^2 operations to compute the f_X(y) table and then we store it away. Last we can now compute P(Y) for each value of y: for each value of Y, call this y: P(y) = 0 for each value of Z, call this z: P(y) += P(z|y) * f_X(y) Note: - P(Y) is a table containing K numbers, one for each value of Y - the innermost operation is "constant time" because we are just looking up these values in a table. - in total it takes K^2 operations to compute this last table. Computing P(Y) by variable elimination takes 3 * K^2 operations, which is much less than K^4 for large K! Basically, by computing each of these tables in the right order we avoid repeating work that we already did.

By far the best explanation of variable elimination; thanks for motivating via brute force/enumeration. For the longest time, it wasn't clear to me that VE was about computational spend not about being the only possible mathematical solution to a problem.

Completely agree, my current professor makes it way to hard to understand, and I never understood what is the use of making things so abstract that students don't understand. What is then the point of education?

Very impressive, you make the model crystal clear, and I know that compute bayesian network is nothing than that to calculate a probability (for discrete variables), or a probability distribution (for continuous variables) efficiently.

For the slip node, can we say that the slip node is conditionally independent from rain? Or is it independent? Or is it still related indirectly? Does the order of summations in variable elimination matter? Also what are observed and unobserved variables? Ie are ancestor variables observed variables? Or are they the marginalized variables? Or something else?

What's the difference between enumeration and variable elimination anyway, still think it's only a difference in notation.

Around 9:43 you simply say that P(S|W,R) is reduced to P(S|W) but you never give a more formal explanation of why. I know it's because of conditional independence. You could have easily added clarity by stating that you started with the chain rule of probability and then applied conditional independence assumption. That would save anyone who has learned basic probability theory a few minutes of their time, instead of making them pause to think through what just happened there.

Thanks! I'll definitely try to clarify that better next time I teach this topic.
@tobiasuhmann50884 жыл бұрын
Thanks for that note. To make it even more explicit for people who still had to think about it (like me): If two variables A and B are independent, P(A|B) = P(A). Here, S and R are independent (which is counterintuitive, as mentioned in the video). Therefore, P(S|W,R) = P(S|W).

Wait. What do the commas actually denote? It seems confusing that they're being used to denote both "AND" and "OR" (Union and Intersection) like at 14:49. Can someone explain what's going on?
@chrisritchie78414 жыл бұрын
The commas represent values to be factored i.e. P(W | C, R) = P(W | C) P(W | R)

very unclear and comfusing using venn diagrams to represent some of the probabilities and giving detail example of the math using numbers to show how it runs would be of great help, for people discovering the subject. I am fairly sure this is a great video for people who already understand the subject or have some grapst on it. But for new comer it is very confusing. not to mention the rise in difficulty between the first part which is quite easy to understand (although venn diagrams would help) and the second part which looks like elvish.

Great video but for the slipping bit your intuition isnt always true like it could be but if the ground is wet doesnt nessasarily mean it was raining as you said so it could not be raining and you could slip on dew covered grass. Loving this video tho as I dont know probability or bayesian classifiers which are in my literature for nns, okay you crossed out the intuition lol paused the video MB
