Furthermore, a more cost-conscience organizational culture in one country or possible variance in local strategies regarding laboratory ordering could account for portions of the variance observed.
In this context, the best predictor is the predictor that partitions the data in a way that each of the resulting nodes has the minimum possible variance in the values of the target variable.
The projections use orthogonal transformations defined in such a way that the first principal component (first axis) has the highest possible variance in order to synthesise most of the initial information.
It retains as much as possible variance in the audio features.
However, the information criteria must be chosen carefully for non-nested models due to the large possible variance in AIC (e.g. Ripley 2004).
The stratified randomisation also controlled for possible variances in the type of patients recruited.
The argument that one theory, in this case the RAA, does not explain all the possible variances in behaviour or behaviour change is not convincing.
The currently used fetal growth references are derived mainly from North American and European population and may be inappropriate for international use, given possible variances in the growth rates of fetuses from different ethnic population groups.
Since it was not practical to make the experiment sufficiently large to encompass all possible variance components in the induction-reversion experiment that might influence the functional microarray analysis, the sampling protocol in our experimental design ignores any inter-aquaria variation and between individual tadpole variation.
In this transformation, the first principal component has the largest possible variance, and each succeeding component in turn has the highest variance possible under the constraint that it be orthogonal to the preceding components.
