for finding the probability of selecting a red coin: instead of doing the branches and all those calculations, can't you just add up all the red coins and divide it by the total number of coins? since the summation of probabilities are 1. or do we need to show all the calculations cause we need to define the bayes theorem?
Holy crap man, what is up with that beeping? This seems like a really well explained video (of a subject not often clearly explained), but that beeping is making my skin crawl. It's like nature doesn't want me to know this theorem. =P
so is Bayes' Theorem basically the reverse of conditional probability ? So normally the type of question for conditional probability would start with something like what is the chance of B given A has happened VS Bayes' Theorem where the question is Given A has happened what is the chance of B ?
Did you calculate the probabilities of selecting a bowl or was that given? Because my problem doesn't give me those probabilities, but it's still asking the same question. Any help?
Whats the probability of hitting my head on a wall given that I want to hit my head on a wall? Good explaining anyways thanks man but I am being forced to learn this given that I am aware that its going to kill me.
Why do you even need to multiply by the chance that the bag was selected. To find the chance of drawing red wouldnt you just divide the total amounts of reds by the total amount of coins ? the answer comes to the same value ?
+moustafa samir Bayes theorem put in relation P(A|B) and P(B|A). Conditional probability considers P(A^B) = P(A) * P(B|A). Bayes forward step is that also P(B) * P(A|B) = P(A^B). So P(A^B) = P(A^B), and of course P(A)*P(B|A) = P(B)*P(A|B).
I wonder why the probability of selecting Bowl1, Bowl2 and Bowl3 is not1/3 for each bowl.I think selecting red ball from Bowl1,Bowl2 and Bowl3 is 1/3, 1/6 and 1/2 respectively should be the right interpretation.....Correct me if I am wrong....
every coin has an equal chance to be taken. (since the 1/3-1/6-1/2-ratio reflects the number of coins. There are 8 red coins in a total of 18. Therefore, P(R) = 8/18 = 4/9 ! Voila: give you the answer in 8 seconds in stead of 9:29. ;-)
It doesn't make sense to me that there's such a big probability os selecting the red coin from the first bowl since there's that much more probabiliy of drawing a coin fron the third bowl AND on top there's over a half probability of selecting a red coin out of that third bowl. It might be just me, but IT'S just don't see it.
Nice, this is what i looking for :D Thanks for sharing this knowledge sir XD But i'm still confuse what bayes theorem is. Can anyone explain it further for me?
Bayes' Theorem is the equation at the beginning of the video, where the symbols have the meanings that Patrick explains of them. I realise this is a bit late, but hopefully this comment will help others.
I was thinking the same... Yes that is the easy way, of course, which works too. BUT: one method is more useful than the other to understand Bayes theorem. You can calculate the probability in two ways here... a "global way", that just looks at the coins (and ignore where they come from), which indeed makes the easy calculation P(R) = #Red coins / #(Red + Blue) Coins Still this must also be equal ;(obviously) to the sum of each probability to draw a red coin from a particular bowl. The second method is more laborious, but shows the various probabilities in detail and allows us to draw a probability tree. Although it's (at least in this example) which method you use, the second one with the probability tree is more useful to understand Bayes theorem.
It's so nice to know that there are still people out there who knows how to speak Modem.
hahahahahahahahahaha so mean!
What is up with the random annoying sound?
im not the only one hearing a beep sound in the back?
damn i thought i was tripping balls hahahaha
Marcelo Vital i thought id have to buy new speakers
Wow now you tell me I just went and bought a new laptop
Andy Lu the video was farting XD,
Probability makes me cry.
He's actually a robot and the beeping is him slipping into his real voice
+Jerel Alicdan or maybe he was on Mars when he did that video
What's the difference between Bayes' theorem and conditional probability?
Thanks! It helped me a lot. Your way to organize the probabilities in a tree really helps understanding!
Taking my first upper level statistics class this spring semester and I'm trying to get a head start- your videos were so helpful with calc1, 2 and 3!
more like we love you. Thanks for all the help, wouldn't pass my classes without you.

I love Bayes' Theorem
I love it too, but i forget it easily 🥲
Oh, the excitement of seeing patrickJMT has done a video on something you're studying
I find the beeping rather soothing.

You're ten times better at teaching than my college professor. Thank you
You don't know how much you helped me!!! Loads of love ......Sravani

In bayes theorm if I know the value of p(symptoms/disease) let's 0.3 so,can I take p(~ymtm/dise)= p(ymtm/~dise) = (1-p(symtm/dis))?
How did you calculate the probability of getting the bowl?
patrick... if I pass my calc class, it's all due to you. thanks for making these videos.
I was nervous about my intro to statistics class but then I realized your channel has statistics videos :p
i have a question about this topic where kan i get an assistance

what is the difference between Bayes' theorem and conditional probability "P(A/B) = P(AB)/P(B)"??
+moustafa samir Bayes theorem put in relation P(A|B) and P(B|A). Conditional probability considers
P(A^B) = P(A) * P(B|A). Bayes forward step is that also P(B) * P(A|B) = P(A^B). So P(A^B) = P(A^B), and of course
P(A)*P(B|A) = P(B)*P(A|B).
thanks Marco D :)
is this the same as conditional probability?
sergioavila2720 yes!
What about sigma and i and k in Bayes' theorum?
I wonder why the probability of selecting Bowl1, Bowl2 and Bowl3 is not1/3 for each bowl.I think selecting red ball from Bowl1,Bowl2 and Bowl3 is 1/3, 1/6 and 1/2 respectively should be the right interpretation.....Correct me if I am wrong....
selecting red coin I meant.....
every coin has an equal chance to be taken. (since the 1/3-1/6-1/2-ratio reflects the number of coins. There are 8 red coins in a total of 18. Therefore, P(R) = 8/18 = 4/9 !
Voila: give you the answer in 8 seconds in stead of 9:29. ;-)
Could you repeat the part about the probability of a given probability about the given bowl of probabilities?
Question, isn't this the Law of Total Probability?
How do I know that I need to use this?
Man I can't thank you enough, you're truly a life saver
I can't believe you're FINALLY doing probability.stuff. I suffered this past semester with very little help.
Just like you love Bayes's Theorem, I love your explanations!
Love this channel. My math teacher sucks and my books sucks. Your vids are extremely helpful
Perfect! this just came out when i needed it! :D
"Part Bay" LOL Bayes' theorem getting to your head now xD
I've been watching your videoa over & over. you explain the processes very well. wish i cud borrow ur brain for my exam next week.
Excellent intro to Bayes Theorem. I now understand it! Thanks.
Beep, boop.
R2D2 😂😂😂
No the repetition in audio and visual format with both unfolding is good didactic technique.
you are so good at explaining!! i understand bayes theorem now! :D :D :D
funny beeps in between made me laugh every time it beeped...what a beeeeeeep!
What does P(B)? How did he get P(B1) = 1/3?
Patrcik thanks alot dude! You are always saving me with my hw :)
I LOVE U SO MUCH @patrickJMT
Your writing is beautiful !
It doesn't make sense to me that there's such a big probability os selecting the red coin from the first bowl since there's that much more probabiliy of drawing a coin fron the third bowl AND on top there's over a half probability of selecting a red coin out of that third bowl. It might be just me, but IT'S just don't see it.
you. are. AMAZING!
finally something that matches to Khan Academy!
Oh Patrick, you're now my new BAYE ... XD
I love it but my first Undergrad Stats Exam on Wednesday is going to be the end of me.
You use a lot of sharpie. Hopefully your work space is well ventilated!
I don't hear a beeping
One thing though, this isn't Bayes' Theorem, this is the law of total probability.
The beeping sound is really messing my concentration.
what a great explanation..You rock!
....my god.
I finally know what | means in equations.
I seriously think I'm going to cry.
patrickJMT for president!
edit this video and remove annoying beep sound
Nice, this is what i looking for :D Thanks for sharing this knowledge sir XD

Seriously though R2-D2's commentary made this very hard to listen to. Seems like exactly what i need but its also giving me a headache
The probability of selecting the bowls don't add up to 1
you make a video then
it is very helpful for me. thank you very much.
Why dont you just add the red balls and divide them by the total balls? You get the same answer.
Sastay.

awesum....probabilty had never been this easy... :-)
Thanks It was very clear explanation
awesome! nice vid
That tree made my life soo simple🤓
Thanks a ton!
Thanks a lot.
can you be my teacher please
You're just awesome :D
helped alot. thanks keep up the good work.
From Portugal
That beeping is awful.
Great.
Please invest in a decent microphone!
That was Given
☺️
great
Can't watch the video with this beeping sound...
+Michael Lam BEEEEEEEEEEEP
thank fucking god
LOL part bae
Btw, you are so fucking helpful!
Yo dude dont use sharpie all the time that is poison
Part Baye haha
Beep beep
wow :)
Dude, have some stuff prepared. You are writing stuff you have already explained most of the time.
*eh* I've encountered better theorems
