The phrase "a modified sum" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts involving mathematics, finance, or any situation where a sum has been altered or adjusted in some way.
Example: "After reviewing the expenses, we arrived at a modified sum that reflects the recent changes in the budget."
Alternatives: "an adjusted total" or "a revised sum".
To test the performance of an alignment program or the influence of program parameters on performance, we removed all gaps from the datasets, realigned them by the program to be tested, and scored the new alignments by a modified sum-of-pairs score (SPS') and the structure conservation index (SCI).
Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT), Filtering White Gaussian Noise (FWFN) and modified Sum of Sinusoidal (SOS) simulators are tested and compared in terms of accuracy of its first and second order statistical metrics, execution time and the later one is found to be as the best appropriate Rayleigh multipath model suitable for incorporating with GPS simulator.
The filtered key frames are then used for bidirectional pixel level accuracy block matching (BM) using large blocks and the modified sum of absolute difference (SAD) metric in [37].
A modified Medical Research Council sum score at the interval level is presented and is recommended for future studies in Guillain Barré syndrome and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy.
A table look-up was used to adjust the coefficients of a modified Min-Sum algorithm and to determine whether or not the parity check processing and the tentative processing would be carried out.
For combining the microphone signals to one output signal, a modified filter and sum beamformer is used with an SNR-based signal weighting.
A modified normalized Min-Sum update is used to speed the convergence of the Min-Sum algorithm [22].
The SNR-based weighting beamformer is a modified filter-and-sum beamformer which means that each input to the beamformer will be filtered and the sum of all the filtered inputs forms the output of the beamformer.
Relative abundance was calculated by dividing the spectral count of a modified peptide by the sum of the spectral counts of all its forms (i.e., modified and unmodified).
Five-year average return on capital is calculated with a modified version of the sum-of-the-years digits method.
