Sentence examples for maximal uncertainty from inspiring English sources

In the case of a binary random variable, with equal probability for each of the two possibilities, the Shannon entropy is one bit, representing maximal uncertainty.

The results show that in the flowrates studied, the maximal uncertainty of the tested vortex flowmeter is less than 6.0% of the base value.

The Kharitonov's theorem is used to determine the robustness margin, i.e., the maximal uncertainty bounds under which the stable performance of the power system is guaranteed.

Because there is maximal uncertainty about the a priori spatial locations of CMBs, that is, they may appear anywhere in the brain [1], [19], a flat prior was used (CMB in Figure 3B).

DA release in the nucleus accumbens (Nacc) has also been found to be sensitive to both the probability of reward receipt and the relative magnitude of the reward, such that the anticipation of relatively greater rewards under conditions of maximal uncertainty results in the greatest increase of sustained mesolimbic DA activity [36], [37].

Further, we found a significant three-way interaction between anhedonia, probability and reward magnitude, such that anhedonia was the strongest predictor of hard-task choices for trials with maximal uncertainty (i.e. 50% probability) and maximum reward magnitude (hard task values >$3.50).

These tolerances can be respected, given the current fabrication precision of 0.6 nm [ 7], even if the "golden rule" of metrology is more restrictive on the maximal uncertainties in the fabrication process.

The maximal overall uncertainties in the electrical measurements did not exceed approximately ± (0.02 to 0.04) MΩ in electrical resistance.

For the case of maximal knowledge or zero uncertainty about the alternatives, where the probabilities are 0 and 1, the Shannon entropy is zero.

Additionally, the utility of MSUS was most impressive when diagnostic uncertainty was maximal, as might have been anticipated.

When the event – "heads" or "tails" – has an equal probability, then the overall uncertainty is maximal (i.e., entropy is greatest).
