02_Probability

This workflow calculates different probabilities using the Adult.csv dataset. We are interested in the columns race, sex and in income where individuals earn more than 50K.

We calculate joint probability of adults who earn more then 50K and belong to a particular race, and conditional probability of adults belonging to a particular race given they are male or female earning more than 50K.

Finally, we calculate posterior probabilities using Bayes' theorem for adults belonging to the race black or white given they are male or female earning more than 50K .
