31. A
data cube C, has n dimensions, and each dimension has exactly p distinct values
in the base cuboid. Assume that there are no concept hierarchies associated
with the dimensions. What is the maximum number of cells possible in the data
cube, C?
(A) pn (B) p
(C) (2n-1)p+1 (D) (p+1)n
Answer:
D
Explanation:
(a) What is
the maximum number of cells possible in the base cuboid?
pn.
This is the
maximum number of distinct tuples that you can form with p distinct values per
dimensions.
(b) What is
the minimum number of cells possible in the base cuboid?
p.
You need at
least p tuples to contain p distinct values per dimension. In this case no
tuple shares any value on any dimension.
(c) What is
the minimum number of cells possible in the data cube, C?
(2n-1)×p+1.
The minimum
number of cells is when each cuboid contains only p cells, except for the apex,
which contains a single cell.
(d) What is
the maximum number of cells possible (including both base cells and aggregate
cells) in the data cube, C?
(p+1)n.
The argument
is similar to that of part (a), but now we have p+1 because in addition to the
p distinct values of each dimension we can also choose ∗.
32. Suppose
that from given statistics, it is known that meningitis causes stiff neck 50%
of the time, that the proportion of persons having meningitis is 1/50000, and
that the proportion of people having stiff neck is 1/20. Then the percentage of
people who had meningitis and complain about stiff neck is:
(A) 0.01% (B) 0.02%
(C) 0.04% (D) 0.05%
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The
computation is based on the simplified Bayes’ formula.
P{B|A} = (P{A|B}·P{B)
/ P{A}.
P{M|S} =
probability that a person had meningitis, conditioned by the existence of stiff
neck.
P{S|M} =
probability that a person complains about stiff neck, conditioned by the
existence of meningitis. = 50%=1/2
P{S} =
proportion of people who complain about stiff neck. = 1/20
P{M} =
proportion of people who had meningitis. = 1/50,000
Then:
P{M|S} =
(P{S|M}·P{M}) / P{S} =(1/2 x 1/50,000)
/ 1/20 = 0.0002 = 0.02%
