The defendant was borne down by the weight of evidence.
有力的证据使被告认输了。
Discretional evaluation of evidence has given judicator enough freedom to determine the existence and weight of evidence value, but the freedom isn't an absolute one without restriction.
In conclusion, while natural events do contribute to climate variability, the weight of evidence strongly suggests that recent climate change is largely anthropogenic.
总之,虽然自然事件确实会导致气候多变性,但大量证据强烈表明,最近的气候变化在很大程度上是人为的。

Bayes' rule
(重定向自Weight of Evidence)
In probability theory and applications, Bayes's rule relates the odds of event to the odds of event , before (prior to) and after (posterior to) conditioning on another event . The odds on to event is simply the ratio of the probabilities of the two events. The prior odds is the ratio of the unconditional or prior probabilities, the posterior odds is the ratio of conditional or posterior probabilities given the event . The relationship is expressed in terms of the likelihood ratio or Bayes factor, . By definition, this is the ratio of the conditional probabilities of the event given that is the case or that is the case, respectively. The rule simply states: posterior odds equals prior odds times Bayes factor (Gelman et al., 2005, Chapter 1).
