probabilistically
In likelihood terms
In a manner based on probability rather than certainty.
Statistical models predict outcomes probabilistically—not as guarantees but as likelihoods: The weather forecast probabilistically favors rain tomorrow.
The term appears in technical and academic contexts where uncertainty is quantified rather than ignored.
