The phrase "a prior target" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a previously identified goal or objective in various contexts, such as business, project management, or research.
Example: "Before we set new goals, we need to evaluate our progress on a prior target."
Alternatives: "an earlier objective" or "a previous goal."
Although the actual PDF of each y n is unknown, a prior target PDF p ̂ y n is often used, so the objective function in (6) can be simplified as in (8) [14].
In April 2010, Joseph Hartzler, the prosecutor at McVeigh's trial, questioned how he could have decided to pass over a prior target building because of an included florist shop but at the Murrah building not "... notice that there's a child day-care center there, that there was a credit union there and a Social Security office?" Schools across the country were dismissed early and ordered closed.
In this paper, we have taken a rather generic approach, involving a minimum of specific prior target information into the model.
When analysing the response rate in relapsed subjects according to prior target irradiation, a trend towards a better clinical response rate was documented in nonradiated vs radiated targets (85 vs 45%; P=0.09).
The posterior probability of the graph is then given by A small σ1 and a large σ2 will reflect the prior target network more in the GRN and vice-versa.
Stern, who came on in 2005 with a five-year $500 million dollar contract, had told his listeners he would not be "taking a f-ing paycut," claiming he was "bigger" than Sirius' prior target, Oprah.
UBS said: If the deal does not proceed, we believe Dana's share price could fall back to/below our prior target of £13.
Although the minimizing energy consumption is the prior target during the routing establishment, EEFR also try to balance the energy consumption among different sensor nodes.
Since this ultrasensitive electrochemical miRNA sensor (EMRS) is highly reproducible and essentially free of prior target labeling and PCR amplification, it can conveniently and reliably analyze miRNA expression levels in clinical samples from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients.
Risk group membership was highly related to HIV characteristics (testing, sero-status), demographics (gender, race, age, education), status (marital, housing, employment, and criminal justice), prior target populations (needle users, crack users, pattern of sexual partners), and geography (site).
Previous research [6 9] has focused on information-theoretic node selection approaches, that is, on heuristics to select an informative sensor such that the fusion of the selected sensor observation with the prior target location distribution would yield on average the greatest reduction in the entropy of the target location distribution.
