The process described in the question involves calculating the posterior probability, which takes into account both the prior probability and the likelihood of the evidence. The other answer options are not directly related to this process - anterior probability refers to the probability before evidence is considered, conditional probability is the probability of an event given that another event has occurred (but does not necessarily involve comparing evidence), and prior probability refers to the initial probability assigned to an event before any evidence is considered.
