The phrase "alignment as opposed to" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when contrasting two different concepts, ideas, or approaches, highlighting a preference for one over the other.
Example: "We should focus on alignment as opposed to misalignment in our strategies to ensure success."
Alternatives: "alignment in contrast to" or "alignment rather than".
We compare the reconstructions from alignment using cross-correlation and our center-of-mass technique, while also demonstrating the advantage of using many slices for the center-of-mass alignment, as opposed to just one center-of-mass calculation.
To investigate the effect of short acquisition and alignment, as opposed to recording a single scan at a longer dwell time, we analysed two different STEM-ADF images from the same session taken along the [1 overline{1})0] cubic direction of a sample of STO: (i) acquired as a single image using a pixel dwell time of 38.5 ({upmu }mathrm{s}) (line synced) with the image shown in Fig. 3a.
This reduces the computational time involved in alignment as opposed to a completely 3D alignment.
The Smith-Waterman algorithm performs a local alignment, as opposed to a global alignment.
Also, kinematic alignment (as opposed to mechanical alignment) in TKA has been debated in recent years as inherently, it does not adhere to traditional thinking concerning implant positioning and it is intended to improve postoperative outcome (Howell et al. 2013a).
Alignment: As opposed to Jong et al. [ 29 ], who sampled each chromosome N times, we decided to sample the chromosomal bands, excluding the non-coding short arms 13p, 14p, 15p and 22p and the sexual chromosomes.
There are two main issues when dealing with whole-genome alignments, as opposed to multiple genes: the size of the data and the detection of recombination breakpoints.
The biggest difference is seen for the human-chicken comparison where 35% of the human genome is covered by gene order alignments as opposed to a coverage of 3% for nucleotide sequence alignments.
Although there is analogy between approximate string matching and LCS computation, the former can be regarded as a local alignment method as opposed to the latter, that is a global alignment method [ 1].
Thus far, we have considered changes in perceived temporal alignment (PSS), as opposed to the sensitivity to changes in relative temporal position.
