Instead, prevalence must be estimated based on the best available data and complex statistical modeling.

"By doing statistical modeling," Mouse said, "we've identified certain patterns in their behavior."

All process of measuring performance requires the use of statistical modeling to determine results.

Despite this, the notion remains useful in probabilistic and statistical modeling.

More advanced statistical modeling can be used to adapt the inference to the sampling method.

Using statistical modeling, the investigators concluded that estrogen might cut a woman's risk in half, but only if she took it for 10 years or more.

However, in practical applications of statistical modeling the assumption may or may not be realistic.

In 1998 Carter was known as one of the first coaches to use statistical modeling in player evaluations.

For that reason, he said, his group moved on to advanced statistical modeling and data analyses.
