He adds that "in predicting the future, we are bound by the same rules of plausibility that bind fiction writers, yet we must also respect the rules of evidence that bind historians".
Degree of conflict is K = 0.27; therefore, normalization factor is (1 − K) = 0.73, in the same way, belief and plausibility functions can be determined by using corresponding equation described earlier from the above analysis.
Based on physiological plausibility, the same excretion rate constant (k) was assumed for both metabolites, and this value was estimated to be a multiple of the excretion rate constant of the parent compound.
The observation that hydrazine reacts rapidly with acetaldehyde in tobacco smoke [38] adds to the plausibility that the same reaction can occur in the tobacco matrix.
2. Michael Shermer discusses the cultish features of Rand's following while at the same time acknowledging the power and plausibility of her philosophy (Shermer 1993).
If the event confidence value of a traffic event is higher than the predefined event confidence threshold, then it indicates that there were sufficient amounts of vehicles that encountered the same traffic event and the occurrence plausibility of this event is much more reliable.
