How can you use “inference” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Recent studies have shown that patient memory was consistent enough with other information to be useful for diagnostic purposes [ 25 ] . Patients' reports were likely to be accurate, but there were often "gaps" in memory of early experience, not inconsistent with ADHD in general, favoring an inference that they didn't remember their behavior rather than not having had the behavior.
It is a fair inference, given the differing situations in New York City and Northern Virginia, that the problems in command, control, and communications that occurred at both sites will likely recur in any emergency of similar scale.
In the chapter on Typography, information that appears in an illustration (p. 730) is somewhat misleading, for the inference is that small capitals are the same height as x-high letters of a given font.
Because bootstrap analysis using ML is not computationally feasible for large data sets [ 85 ] , we conducted a Bayesian analysis as an alternative employing optimization parameters similar to the nucleotide substitution model that we used for ML [ 86 87 ] . The distinction between ML and Bayesian inference is that Bayesian provides probabilities for hypotheses, not probabilities of data given a hypothesis [ 85 87 88 ] . Bayesian analysis uses Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods to approximate posterior probability distributions that are a direct estimation of branch support because they are the true probabilities of the resulting clades under the assumed models, unlike bootstrap values [ 87 88 ] . Additionally, bootstrap values and posterior probabilities derived from Bayesian analyses for multiple data sets appear to be correlated [ 88 ] . The Bayesian analysis was conducted with the software MrBayes 2.0 [ 89 ] . A GTR substitution model with 6 rate frequencies was selected as the most similar model to the Trn+G substitution model (the latter model is not available in MrBayes).
Following Fraley and Raftery [ 10], we propose to use the Bayesian inference criterion (BIC) [ 19] for selecting the number of gene clusters.
