A test for Coronavirus is 70% likely to detect the infection if it is present, and 99.1% likely to return a negative test if the infection is absent. If the prevalence of the disease (the proportion of people who have the disease) is 0.1%, then what is the probability that a person who tests positive actually has the disease?In [9]:
The probability that a person who tests positive actually has the disease is 0.0722(7.22%)1. How would your answer above change if the probability of a false positive test was zero?If the probbaility of a false positive was 0: Then the probbaility of a true positive must be 100%In [10]:prob_pos = 0.7 prob_neg = 0.991 prob_disease = 0.001prob = (prob_pos*prob_disease)/((prob_pos*prob_disease)+0)print(The probability that a person who tests positive actually has the disease (withno possibility of a false positive) is {0:1.2f}({1:3d}%).format(prob, int(prob*100)))The probability that a person who tests positive actually has the disease(with no possibility of a false positive) is 1.00(100%)Theoretical Probability Distributions(5 Marks)1. A Poisson random variable is often used to model counts of customer arrivals in a shop. Assume that the number of customers to arrive in a particular hour follows a Poisson(5) distribution. Compute and plot the probabililty distribution of a Poisson(5) distribution. (Plot the distribution over the range 0 to 15.)In [11]:

Use the rename() command to do this.In [13]:euro_birds = euro_birds.rename(columns={Sexual.dimorphism:SexualDimorphism})1.

(c) Draw a scatter plot of the residuals and comment on them
Commenting on the residuals: Theres a cluster towards the left, the rest of the data is rather sporadic and not tending towards zero which is what we want (the closer to zero the closer the prediction is to the actual), however there arent any extreme outliers. The residuals range from -1.0 to 1,5, which isnt a huge difference. There arent any clear patterns which is good, the fitted line seems to go through it smoothly, and no funnelling.1. Now add Sexual Dimorphism as a covariate, and see if that improves the model by inspecting the residual scatter plot.In [16]:
Commenting on the residuals with Sexual Dimorphism as a covariate: There isnt any noticeable difference in the plots, furthermore outputting the residuals without Sexual Dimorphism and comparing to the residuals with Sexual Dimorphism has shown that theres only a marginal difference between the two.Ethical and privacy issues(5 Marks)1. During the Coronavirus pandemic, many countries are investigating the electronic collection of contact data as a means of identifying close contacts of people who are diagnosed with Covid-19. One possibility is an app on a smartphone which broadcasts an identifier which other devices record when in close proximity. If a person is identified as a case, then the data from their app is used to identify the personal devices to which they have been close in the previous weeks.Write a short discussion, of about 250-300 words, about the issues of privacy, security and confidentiality that you see with a plan of this sort.There are privacy, security and confidentialty issues when it comes to contact tracing apps. The justification of these sort of apps rest solely on their potential to provide significant benefits, and where able, to mitigate the factors of risk to an individuals pivacy, security and confidentiality.Any application that utilises a device to communicate with other devices must be careful that it does not breach a persons right to privacy. Collecting data about you and who you are in close proximity on a daily basis can be a dangerous tool, especially with the potential of social network analysis and other data science tools. An application that traces a users movement is intrusive and predatory but then again its what Google does anyway. The app must make the end-users aware of what data theyre collecting, how theyre collecting it and why theyre collecting it. The app must be voluntary, this has a trade-off of participation vs forced invasion of privacy, in a scenario of a compulsory application: the need must be extremely justified. The scope of the application must not extend beyound that of covid-19.It is paramount that data of this sensitivity must not be in anyway viewed by those without authorisation. This includes not just hackers but others that might be interacting with this data in some capacity. Data should be encrypted, salted and hashed, and proper E2E encryption not whatever Zoom is using. The app must have limited use such that identifiable information musnt be viewable and the app is only used for its sole purpose.Confidentiality is the act of obscuring data so that its difficult (hopefully impossible) to trace data back to the individual. An app of this sort can potentially breach confidentiality by collecting personal data such as locations, the people theyre with etc. A way to mitigate this issue is injecting noise into the data so thats its harder to be identifiable.
