It can be used when specifying the least quantity required for a particular purpose or situation.
Example: "To ensure the project is successful, we need to determine the absolute minimum number of participants required."
Alternatives: "least number of" or "minimum required amount".
The present beam-column elements enable accurate modeling of the dynamic plastic behavior of frame structures by using the absolute minimum number of elements per structural member.
"That is, if a need for rapid zygote formation does not give a big advantage to multiple mating types, natural selection and genetic drift will tend to drive the system to the absolute minimum number of mating types, just two, assuming that outcrossing is beneficial" (p. 17).
A result from Kishi and Katajini in 1967 is that the absolute minimum number of variables required to describe the behaviour of the network is given by the maximum distance between any two spanning forests of the network graph.
Constructing BC n-RANCs with the absolute minimum number of cells also affects the prediction of the percentage of inhibitory cells.
So retaining more than the absolute minimum number of cells to maintain functionality and modularity is also more consistent with the neocortex.
Furthermore, with the genetic method, we obtain an absolute minimum number of individuals in the study area and can obtain additional data on minimum group composition and territory size, as well as track individuals over time.
4 or 5 people are an absolute minimum number to assure some validity.
That is, values for δ were consistently higher in MM models than our observed value of δ = -15, although for some MM models the 95% simulated distribution of the absolute fit (minimum number of deep coalescences) did include observed values (models MM3-MM6, MM9-MM12).
The absolute maximum and minimum number of SNP differences between two different VNTR types for INMV 1, 2, and 3 was also calculated.
In models R2 and R3, with L. a. astyanax sister to L. a. arthemis, the 95% distribution of the absolute fit (the minimum number of deep coalescences) included the observed value (table 3).
Relative sensitivity is the detection threshold for a specific mRNA within the total RNA pool whereas absolute sensitivity is the minimum number of molecules of a given mRNA that must be present in a sample of total RNA in order to produce a signal.
