The phrase "a given number of seconds" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a specific, unspecified quantity of time measured in seconds.
Example: "The experiment requires the sample to be heated for a given number of seconds to achieve the desired reaction."
Alternatives: "a specified duration in seconds" or "a certain amount of seconds".
To correct for imperfect accuracy when inferring the number of MAE genes in a given number of samples, we first computed for each gene, using simple combinatorial probability, the probability to be MAE in any number of samples given the number of samples where it was predicted to be MAE and the MAE prediction accuracy.
We randomly generated 200 π vectors with IC evenly distributed between 0 and 2. For each π and a given number of species, we first generated a 200-column alignment by sampling sequences in the leaf nodes using the CTMP model with the rate matrix Q parameterized by π [as in Equation (10)].
We generated random walks for metabolic networks of given reaction numbers N and viability on a given number of sulfur sources by first generating a random metabolic network of this size, as just described.
To simulate a dataset with a given number of genes and tissues, we first simulate a segmentation by drawing segment lengths (i.e. number of genes) randomly from a geometric distribution with a specified mean until all genes have been assigned.
In the first stage, a spanning tree with a given number of nodes is randomly constructed; in the second stage, the spanning tree is expanded to the required random graph by arbitrarily adding a certain number of lines to it.
Its principle is relatively simple: in each iteration the incumbent solution is partially destroyed and then it is repaired again; that is, first a given number of elements are removed and then they are reinserted.
First, for a given number of groups G, we run a NMF algorithm that was developed earlier to preliminarily cluster the samples.
Since 2000, when domestic auto employment peaked, the number of workers required to produce a given number of vehicles has fallen by more than one-third.
This will allow real-time processing of SAEs (after clinical review) to monitor incidence (utilising formal sequential analysis techniques), and interim safety analysis after a minimum of a given number of patients or period of time whichever occurs first.
