“…The influence of BA can be seen in mathematics, statistics, computer science, bioinformatics, economics, physics, ecosystem, parasitology, and epidemiology as well as in human and veterinary medicine (Ashby and Smith, 2000;Basáñez et al, 2004;Dowd and Meyer, 2003;Fienberg, 2006;Gardner, 2002). A classic example of applying BA in order to make inductive reasoning from an effect to a cause is during 1855 to 1865 in London, England, where John Snow had used BA as his inductive reasoning to scientifically convince audiences that a source of cholera transmission was from a private water supplier company (Koch and Denike, 2006).…”
