1 Reading 2.4 pg IndicatorExapley Consider the set of integers 1,2 in A non empty subset of 1,2 n is chosen at radon Let X denote the size of the subset What is ELI Let lo if i belongs to the subset otherwise so fat X Xi Think Hui proble 3 a There are 2 1 possible non empty subsets and L of them contain i Hence Phi D 3 Ear n 3
2 Fact Two RVs X and Y are independent iff ElfhlHkly Ethan E kill for all functions ht and KC The for all in the above fact a an important distinction When h and function k are both the i e hk x ad identity klyl g we say the RVs are uncorrelated The correlation between two random variables X and Y is EEXYJ If EEXY ELITE EY we say X and Y are In general uncorrelated it can be quite difficult to talk about expectations of products so we often use tricks to band them one such trick is the Cauchy Schwarz inequality The inequality for rado variables states that CoalySchi I EExidle VEEXTEEYTT between The two random variables X d Y is covariance xn EEN EEN Y EET

4 ConditionalPobability For discrete RVs the conditional probability follows directly from the definition for rado events see Lee 2 notes The conditional PMF is summarized via the equation packing pxiyk.ly pylgj partykj pxkj here pxxlxilyjj PIX x.ly yj Using PMFs the law of total probability becomes pilgj pyixlyjlxilp.hr E Binay symmetric channel Suppose we transmit Xe o B ad receive a flipped bit with probability E Kalled the crossover probability Let Y be the received signal X B Ip Whet s pyly if I E f i Ply o ply ok ojp x o Ply ok 1 PKa Ite l p Ep
