Oct 22, 2012 at 19:18 comment added Piotr Migdal @Procrastinator Sure, I just didn't want to steal your rep. But if you are fine with it, I'll do. :)
Oct 22, 2012 at 19:16 comment added user10525 @PiotrMigdal Thanks for the kind offer. I would prefer to see your own answer. Maybe including how you came up with this question and how that quantity can be useful.
Oct 22, 2012 at 19:07 comment added Piotr Migdal @Procrastinator Thx! Could you make it an answer, as the link point to: "Then, at least in the environmental, medical and life sciences literature, P(A∩B)/(P(A)P(B)) is called the observed to expected ratio (abbreviation o/e)."

Jan 7, 2011 at 14:23 comment added vqv I think it depends on the context. Note that $$Q = \frac{\Pr(A|B)}{\Pr(A)} = \frac{\Pr(B|A)}{\Pr(B)}$$ so that $\Pr(A|B) = Q \Pr(A)$ and $\Pr(B|A) = Q \Pr(B)$. This form has more of a Bayesian inference flavor.
