Sentence examples for most likely outbreak from inspiring English sources
The design and outbreak source detection can be performed with a portfolio model with Pareto optimization that selects the most important observer networks by maximizing the VoI, and detects the most likely outbreak sources by minimizing the uncertainty in the effective distance from the real sources.
Since in our experiments this model is used only in the context of selecting the most likely outbreak hypothesis, there is no need to specify α or calculate Z M. The value q = P outbreak) × 4/(R(R + 1) C(C + 1)) was used for the structure prior parameter.
In terms of the most likely outbreak subregion Q detected by each algorithm and the actual subregion SUB covered by the simulation-generated outbreak rectangles in each scenario, the cell-wise spatial precision is taken to be the proportion | Q ∩ SUB|/| Q| and the cell-wise spatial recall to be | Q ∩ SUB|/| SUB| where the notation | X| signifies the area of subregion X.
Moreover, there was a lack of clear correlation between easting of the most likely outbreaks and their starting dates, in contrast to the correlation between these parameters at the herd level.

It needs to be emphasized that although the no movement case is the most likely case in this outbreak case, the conclusion may not be generalized to all outbreak cases because the numerical simulation and the risk assessment are case-dependent.
The simplest method to determine which food and which outbreak source are the most likely to determine the observed outbreak patterns is to test which feasible candidate source has the lowest variability in terms of mean and variance assessed from Eq. 1.
Although food samples from this point source outbreak were not available for microbiological culture, epidemiological evidence pointed to eggs containing dishes as the most likely source of the outbreak.
Our results suggest that the most likely source of this outbreak was the same dairy goat farm, Farm A, as had been implicated in a smaller outbreak in the area the previous year.
