The Examiner's interpretation would likewise render the expressly recited claim term "probabilistic" superfluous. Such an interpretation would be contrary to the canons of claim construction. "A claim construction that gives meaning to all the terms of the claim is preferred over one that does not do so." Merck & Co. v. Teva Phams. USA, Inc., 395 F.3d 1364, 1372 (Fed. Circ. 2005). We therefore find the Examiner's claim construction of "a probabilistic model" unreasonable broad.
