Jun 6, 2018 at 14:29 comment added byouness You are welcome, always glad to help when I can. Maybe it's simply a typo and what they wanted to say was inverse of Cholesky decomposition.
Jun 6, 2018 at 11:38 comment added ironman It is given in some undirected graphical model slides in google. Unable to find now. This bloody inverse covariance matrix is creating problem to me. I don't understand its purpose here. But thanks sir anyway.
Jun 6, 2018 at 11:26 comment added byouness Completed my answer to clarify all this. I hope it's clear now. Would be good if you include the reference of the citation you used in the question. Thanks! The fact that the inverse of Cholesky's decomposition of a matrix $C$ is fully characterized by the inverse of the matrix $C^{-1}$ doesn't look straightforward to express explicitly unfortunately.

Jun 6, 2018 at 10:48 comment added ironman Thanks Sir for answering. But I have one more doubt. I understand that using covariance matrix we can write the conditional value. But what is the need of inverse covariance matrix here. I will be obliged if you explain your answer a little bit more. Would you explain me with a small example!
