To provide a more complete picture of circulating serotypes, we developed a real-time PCR serotyping method that encompassed the serotypes present in the 13-valent vaccine.
A remarkable property of this method is that it is a conjugate direction method and one of the best quasi-Newton methods that encompassed the advantage of both the Newton method and the steepest descent method, while avoiding their shortcomings [16].
Diagnostic methods that encompass the diverse etiologies of asthmatic responses and incorporate robust exposure measurements capable of capturing different temporal patterns of complex chemical mixtures are needed.
As we argue below, QOL research has much to gain by using methods that encompass these phenomena.
However, the great genetic diversity among species of Leishmania genus hampers the development of a diagnostic method that can encompass all forms of leishmaniasis and detect overall species agent of the disease [ 27].
Objecting to the deductively reasoned economic "laws" of classical economics, proponents of the historical approach favoured an inductive method that would encompass the continuing development of the entire social order; economic motives and decisions were seen as only one component of the social order.
However, a lot of failures have been recorded, possibly due to disregarded local factors in the formulations used, and there is no method that has encompassed all these factors, in order to take them into account in its design.
Algorithms were developed to create a closed, smooth contour that encompassed the tumor pixels resulting from two automated segmentation methods: k-nearest neighbors and knowledge guided.
To evaluate the efficacy of the HMM method, the percentage of HMM candidate regions that encompassed SNPs showing 'conventional LOH' was compared between patients by one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc analysis.
And one that encompassed much more than a house.
We present a unified analytic tool named variable-metric adaptive projected subgradient method (V-APSM) that encompasses the important family of adaptive variable-metric projection algorithms.
