4. Consider a vector of \(d\) independent binary random variables \(\mathbf{a} = [a_0, a_1, \cdots, a_{d-1}]\) in which \(\Pr(a_\ell = 1) = p_1^{(\ell)}\), \(\Pr(a_\ell = 0) = p_0^{(\ell)}\), and \(L_\ell = \ln(\frac{p_0^{(\ell)}}{p_1^{(\ell)}})\) for \(\ell = 0, 1, \cdots, d-1\).
(a) Consider a new binary random variable \(A\) which is the binary sum of \(a_1\) and \(a_2\), i.e., \(A = a_1 \oplus a_2\). Please show that the log-likelihood ratio of \(A\) defined as
, can be expressed as
.
