The phrase "a relatively small threshold" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing a limit or point of entry that is considered minor or not significant in size or amount.
Example: "In this experiment, we established a relatively small threshold for detecting changes in temperature."
Alternatives: "a modest threshold" or "a minor threshold".
That the estimated slope in (1) is not significantly different from 1 (above a relatively small threshold) justifies the use of a simple model in which (w_{i} propto p_{i}), or equivalently, p_{i} = m w_{i}, (2) where we have written (2) with the populations on the right hand side because our goal is to use call volumes, (w_{i}), to estimate populations, (p_{i}).
We show in our experiments that a relatively small threshold for the component size yields the best scaffolding results.
Therefore, restricting the output to P-values below a relatively small threshold, or increasing storage throughput using a striped disk RAID array, for example, can decrease computational demands when analyzing multiple phenotypes.
If Sriver was historically low because of warm summer temperatures, we could reasonably conclude that (i) subyearlings would have a relatively small threshold smolt size because of the substantive survival benefits of entering the ocean as early as possible and (ii) most slow growers died before reaching the ocean because there was no suitable habitat to support river residence.
Compared with the deformation of silicon under nanoindentation, the present study concludes that the threshold load under scratching is always smaller, and that a sharp indenter leads to a relatively smaller threshold load.
It is found that at least two competing dissipative mechanisms are at work in short-term creep of cement-based materials: (1) a creep relaxation mechanism in the calcium silicate hydrate (C S H) solid phase activated by microstress concentrations in the heterogeneous microstructure; and (2) stress relaxation by microcracking beyond a relatively small stress threshold.
Because of the additional information encoded in the modified de Bruijn graph, one can use here a relatively small coverage threshold.
An optimal threshold will always be taxon specific and even within a relatively small group a universal threshold is unlikely to be effective.
However, even with a stringent threshold value, a relatively small number of SNPs were excluded, i.e. 0.2, 0.6, and 8.6% of 496,733 SNPs for threshold values of 0.02, 0.01, and 0.001 (Table V).
We show that by the assumption of a midtread quantization law with different thresholds, a relatively small number of quantization bits is sufficient, thus reducing the implementation complexity.
