+all

• Likelihood - likelihood is related to consultant terminologist work done by @Rob Hausam.

• @Jim Campbell proposed a hierarchy of "likelihood"-related property types, possibly descendants of the property type "Presence"

  • Probability (or likelihood, etc.) here is the probability of presence of an entity or occurrence of an event

• Prediction vs. observation of current state may have different representations (disposition vs. "presence style")

  • Prediction (probability) of a future event based on observations of the current "state" , e.g. probability of future stroke, probability of trisomy 21 in fetus/child given maternal age only

  • Probability of something being present at the time of observation, where the observation method cannot give 100 % (or approximately 100 %) certain results, e.g. probability of the biological sex (M/F) of a fetus, trisomy 21 probability of a fetus during pregnancy.

Example values:

• Review use cases for different "likelihood" observables

• @Daniel Karlsson Test at least one solution to some of the cases found
