" It is commonly supposed that by jactus lapidum, Fitzstephen meant the game of bowls, but though it is possible that round stones may sometimes have been employed in an early variety of the game-and there is a record of iron bowls being used, though at a much later date, on festive occasions at Nairn ,-nevertheless the inference seems unwarranted.

Particularly when the frequency interpretation of probability is mistakenly assumed to be the only possible basis for frequentist inference.

' Here is our answer: We refuse to allow you to speak for all the American people ... We refuse to be party to these wars and we repudiate any inference that they are being waged in our name or for our welfare ..." It indicates as inspiration "... Israeli reservists who, at great personal risk, declare ' there IS a limit ' and refuse to serve in the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza ", the abolitionists, and " those who defied the Vietnam war " and concludes, " we will resist the machinery of war and repression and rally others to do everything possible to stop it.

There is recent work that develops CBR within a statistical framework and formalizes case-based inference as a specific type of probabilistic inference ; thus, it becomes possible to produce case-based predictions equipped with a certain level of confidence.

ISWIM variables did not have explicit type declarations and it seems likely ( although not explicitly stated in the 1966 paper ) that Landin intended the language to be dynamically typed, like LISP and unlike ALGOL ; but it is also just possible that he had in mind to develop some form of type inference.

Despite possible inference from the signage, the MoA name applies only to the field, not the stadium as a whole.

Significant innovations include shared term rewriting ( where many possible equational simplifications are carried out in a single operation ), several efficient term indexing data structures for speeding up inferences, advanced inference literal selection strategies, and various uses of machine learning techniques to improve the search behaviour.

Spoliation has two possible consequences: in jurisdictions where the ( intentional ) act is criminal by statute, it may result in fines and incarceration for the parties who engaged in the spoliation ; in jurisdictions where relevant case law precedent has been established, proceedings possibly altered by spoliation may be interpreted under a spoliation inference.

The spoliation inference is a negative evidentiary inference that a finder of fact can draw from a party's destruction of a document or thing that is relevant to an ongoing or reasonably foreseeable civil or criminal proceeding: the finder of fact can review all evidence uncovered in as strong a light as possible against the spoliator and in favor of the opposing party.

Similarly, fingerprint evidence, videotapes, sound recordings, photographs, and many other examples of physical evidence that support the drawing of an inference, i. e., circumstantial evidence, are considered very strong possible evidence.

This is because sediment grain size analysis throughout a profile allows inference into the erosion or accretion rates possible if shore dynamics are modified.

Unlike instructions, rules are not executed sequentially and it is not always possible to determine through inspection of a set of rules which rule will be executed first or cause the inference engine to terminate.

By grouping together all of the clauses that use the same variable, and applying the inference rule to each pair of clauses, it is possible to find all inferences that are possible from a given 2-CNF instance, and to test whether it is consistent, in total time, where is the number of variables in the instance: for each variable, there may be pairs of clauses involving that variable, to which the inference rule may be applied.

GHC's front end-incorporating the lexer, parser and typechecker-is designed to preserve as much information about the source language as possible until after type inference is complete, toward the goal of providing clear error messages to users.

This strategy required French control of the western Mediterranean to ensure that no inference would be possible with troop convoys from Algeria to Marseilles.

This method makes it possible to create a multi-variable morphological field which can be treated as an inference model – thus integrating scenario planning techniques with contingency analysis and sensitivity analysis.

It is difficult to solve for Bayesian equilibria in such a setting because it involves solving for agents ' best-response strategies and for the best inference from a possible strategic lie.

In brief, a language, which is understood to be associated with certain patterns of inference, has logical harmony if it is always possible to recover analytic proofs from arbitrary demonstrations, as can be shown for the sequent calculus by means of cut-elimination theorems and for natural deduction by means of normalisation theorems.

However, it is possible to extend the inference rules of both calculi so that there are proofs that satisfy the condition but are not analytic.

It is possible, although highly doubtful, that he killed none at all but merely let his reputation work for him by privately claiming every unsolved murder in the state.

It is also possible, but equally doubtful, that he actually shot down the hundreds of men with which his legend credits him.

`` Now that Bruno Walter is virtually in retirement and my dear friend Dimitri Mitropoulos is no longer with us, I am probably the only one -- with the possible exception of Leonard Bernstein -- who has this special affinity for and champions the works of Bruckner and Mahler ''.

Even in domains where detailed and predictive understanding is still lacking, but where some explanations are possible, as with lightning and weather and earthquakes, the appropriate kind of human action has been more adequately indicated.

Within this notion clarity is possible, but for us who are neither Greek nor Jansenist there is not such clarity.

Mimesis is the nearest possible thing to the actual re-living of experience, in which the imagining person recovers through images something of the force and depth characteristic of experience itself.

Whitehead contends that the human way of understanding existence as a unity of interlocking and interdependent processes which constitute each other and which cause each other to be and not to be is possible only because the basic form of such an understanding, for all its vagueness and tendency to mistake the detail, is initially given in the way man feels the world.

The first of two possible variations on this theme is symbolized by Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer.

All we want from Dr. Huxley's statement is the feeling that this is an open world, in the view of the best scientific opinion, with practically no directional commitments as to what may happen next, and no important confinements with respect to what may be possible.

In the range and variety of characters who, in their literary lives, get along all right with life styles one never imagined possible, there is an implicit lesson in differentiation.

Most students of literature, whether they call themselves scholars or critics, are ready to argue that it is possible to understand literary works as well as to enjoy them.

In looking back over the volumes, it is possible to find errors of interpretation, some of which were not so evident at the time of writing.

Says he, `` I may never imagine that in the struggle between personal and supra-personal responsibility it is possible to make a compromise between the ethical and the purposive in the shape of a relative ethic ; ;

Fortunately, it is possible to be somewhat more concrete and factual in diagnosing the involvement of values in education.

But when the situation was so complicated that even Nogaret, one of the principal actors in the drama, could misinterpret the pope's motives, it is possible that Othon and his companions, equally baffled, attributed their difficulties to a more immediate cause.

It is no longer possible to say that a sceptical attitude towards the received accounts of the invasions almost automatically produces a `` shore occupied by '' interpretation.

However, the possible absence of a center of symmetry not only moves the hydrogen atom off Af, but also allows the oxygen atoms to become nonequivalent, with Af at Af and Af at Af ( space group Af ), where Af represents the oxygens on one side of the Af layers and Af those on the other side.

Discussions of the giants one by one will include, as far as possible, data on these aspects of growth: size at which life is started and at which sexual maturity is reached ; ;

Mainly these were concerned with the possibility of the death of one parent and the complication of living with the survivor afterward, but the possible death of one's own spouse was not overlooked.

There has been a tendency on the part of many American linguists to assume that a phonemic transcription will automatically be the best possible orthography and that the only real problem will then be the social one of securing acceptance.
