Their integration in complex processes can be improved systematically through well established analytical tools, like pinch and exergy analyses.
The reality is that most companies do not use a quantitative methodology to select candidates, and even the quantitative methods are rarely analyzed and improved systematically.
The degradation rates of toluene for different amounts of N-TiO2 show that photocatalytic degradation efficiency improved systematically with the amount of N-TiO2 when the amount of N-TiO2 in the film is varied from 0.71 to 5.00 mg.
While the QMA-based scoring improved systematically the detection of each interaction category, the biggest benefits were gained at the higher specificity levels, which are more relevant in many applications (see the 10% FPR window in the Figure 1).
The prediction capability was improved systematically at each specificity-level, demonstrating that the procedure could distinguish with high accuracy the functionally related gene pairs over the whole spectrum of the exceptional deviations (Figure 3).
The authors assume that the ability of humans to discriminate two odors improves systematically with this distance.
Using the MAQC metrics for evaluating the performance of gene expression platforms, the ExpressSeq results for gene expression levels showed excellent reproducibility, sensitivity, and specificity that improved systematically with increasing shotgun sequencing depth, and quantitative accuracy that was comparable to DNA microarrays and QRTPCR.
Decisions for implementing different hemodynamic monitoring devices may improve when systematically considering the relevant issues, according to a predefined checklist, for example.
A powerful, easy-to-use analytic tool for nonlinear problems in general, namely the homotopy analysis method, is further improved and systematically described through a typical nonlinear problem, i.e. the algebraically decaying viscous boundary layer flow due to a moving sheet.
The framework could also be improved by systematically incorporating factors beyond cost, such as the ability to leverage funding.
