Many existing quantification methods do so by using considerations of likelihood, parsimony and optimality to obtain a consolidated view of cDNA fragments that map to a given transcriptional unit (Katz et al., 2010; Montgomery et al., 2010; Trapnell et al., 2012).
When there is a lack of reliable clinical evidence related to an interaction, participants suggested consideration of the likelihood of an interaction based on the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties.
Careful consideration of the likelihood of a subgroup effect being present (prior probability) and the statistical power of the subgroup analysis (sensitivity) need to inform whether a subgroup analysis should be part of the primary (hypothesis testing) or exploratory (hypothesis generating) analyses.
Statistical biogeographic methods such as DEC allow not only an examination of the biogeographic history of a clade and an estimate of the processes involved in producing that history (dispersal, vicariance and extinction), but also quantification of how confident we are in these reconstructions, via consideration of (relative) likelihoods.
In this view, the question of fairness in research must be posed within realistic considerations of the likelihood of universal implementation of public health goals.
Because abuse of the bail system was a legitimate concern, the system was further codified and reformed in the Magna Carta, which accordingly took into account three criteria we still use today: whether the offense merited consideration of bail, the likelihood of conviction and the defendant's criminal history.
The improvement is shown to come from both the consideration of a joint likelihood (JLH) function, describing all parameters and data, and from an a priori postulated form of the population parameters.
"Judges are humans, and they will consciously or subconsciously take into consideration the likelihood of success of the prosecution".
A further important consideration is likelihood of success.
In the absence of a WHO guideline on Mn, governments and other stakeholders must take into consideration the likelihood of exposure to Mn through drinking water for their populations as well as research results on toxic effects of Mn in setting their own -regulations for Mn.
