Typically, principles of direct inference are proposed as principles for inferring subjective or epistemic probabilities from beliefs about objective chance (e.g., Pollock).
We used the maximum entropy principle to infer a network of interactions between phosphorylation sites assuming only constraints obtained from pairwise correlations observed in quantitative mass spectrometry data.
CCH uses this principle to infer IBD inheritance at loci where, in a group of individuals, CH is not observed across numerous consecutive SNPs.
In his proof of the principle of utility, Mill does infer an ought from an is, but he does so legitimately.
We considered a method using the principle of maximum entropy to infer a network of interacting phosphotyrosine sites from pairwise correlations in a mass spectrometry data set and derive a phosphorylation-dependent interaction network solely from quantitative proteomics data.
Based on the reconstructed tree topologies and following the principle of parsimony, we can infer that the ancestor of the Central and edwardsianus lineages likely occupied a niche similar to that of its sister group, i.e. the Western lineage.
We also noted earlier that conversational principles can serve as generalizations used in the process of inferring implicatures, and we can add that flouting a principle often serves as a signal that an implicature convention is in play.
As is well known, Rawls starts by ascribing to the utilitarian the claim that the rationality of a certain principle of social choice can be inferred from the rationality of a certain principle of individual choice.
A∨B can be inferred from A as well as from B. Therefore, if the disjunction laws were the only way of inferring A∨B, the derivability of A∨¬A, which is a key principle of classical logic, would entail that of either A or of ¬A, which is absurd.
Genetic haplotyping: The process of inferring the phasing of variants observed in ordered genotypes according to the principles of Mendelian segregation of alleles in pedigrees.
