The small number of participants and the lack of a probabilistic sample limit the generalisability of the results; thus, additional studies should assess the characteristics of mothers and their infants, and their social support regarding the use of pacifiers.
The binary states, i.e., success or failed state assumptions used in conventional reliability are inappropriate for reliability analysis of complex industrial systems due to lack of sufficient probabilistic information.
Morphological characters are not included due to the lack of reasonable probabilistic models to simulate their evolution.
Stability relates to the probability of events in T1 that make events in T2 more probable; it refers to lack of extraneous probabilistic conditional independences in a BN.
However, the major difficulty in applying it to EMAP lies in the lack of a probabilistic score assigned to each interaction.
PLSA represented a more direct approach to model the data than LSA, but its lack of a probabilistic model at the document level led to the development of Latent Dirichlet Model (LDA) [ 4].
Aleatory uncertainty can be characterised by known probability distributions whilst epistemic uncertainty arises from a lack of knowledge of probabilistic information.
Misfit of items indicates a lack of the expected probabilistic relationship between the item and other items in the scale.
Misfit of a question indicates a lack of the expected probabilistic relationship between the question and other questions in the examination.
