If we were to regard Sirius and Procyon as double stars, the change of their motions would not surprise us ; we should acknowledge them as necessary, and have only to investigate their amount by observation.

If is close to zero, will be very close to one after a single observation of an object which turned out to have the predicate, while if is much larger than, will be very close to regardless of the fraction of observed objects which had the predicate.

If an observation inductively supports the former but not the latter, then " inductively support " must refer to something other than changes in the probabilities of propositions.

If these elements for any synoptic cloud level at the time of observation are deemed to be of equal importance, then the type which is predominant in amount is coded by the observer and plotted on the weather map.

If the mean and variance matrix are unknown, a suitable log likelihood function for a single observation x would be:

If the observable universe encompasses the entire universe, we may determine the global structure by observation.

If the observable universe is smaller than the entire universe ( in some models it is many orders of magnitude smaller or even infinitesimal ), observation is limited to a part of the whole.

On page 27 of the 1855 printing of Harriet Martineau's translation of The Positive Philosophy of Auguste Comte, we see his observation that, " If it is true that every theory must be based upon observed facts, it is equally true that facts can not be observed without the guidance of some theories.
