In the fourth lecture, we defined the conditional probability P(A|B) and illustrated how to compute it with two examples. We also constructed a decision tree to illustrate how the the concept of conditional probabilities can be used to obtain the probability of false alarm and the probability of missed detection in a detection experiment.
