8.17 ( ) Consider a graph of the form shown in Figure 8.38 having N = 5
Question:
8.17 ( ) Consider a graph of the form shown in Figure 8.38 having N = 5 nodes, in which nodes x3 and x5 are observed. Use d-separation to show that x2 ⊥⊥ x5 | x3.
Show that if the message passing algorithm of Section 8.4.1 is applied to the evaluation of p(x2|x3, x5), the result will be independent of the value of x5.
