The phrase "altering reference" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are discussing changes or modifications to a reference point or source of information.
Example: "The researcher is altering reference points in the study to better align with the new data collected."
Alternatives: "modifying reference" or "changing reference".
Therefore, the algorithm first detects scene changes by analyzing the amount of intra-prediction for frames which belong to dependent views, then it alters reference frame ordering accordingly so that the spatial frames are indexed prior to temporal frames [24].
Further, research presented as having a different endpoint (e.g. an ADME study) but actually intended for the purpose of facilitating a waiver of an uncertainty factor, or discounting of a toxic effect as not relevant to humans, should not be allowed to alter reference values upward so as to avoid use of experimental human volunteer studies as a strategy to subvert stricter regulatory standards.
When Fitch substituted the true conjunction, p ∧ ¬∃x∃t(Kxpt), for p in the knowability principle, he substituted for p a non-rigid designator, thereby altering the reference of the conjunction and perpetrating a modal fallacy.
Data on DFS and OS, and univariate Cox analysis comparing the group of patients with at least one marker altered versus reference group patients with no altered levels of any tumour marker are displayed in Table 5.
The statement was quite significantly more hawkish, as they altered the reference to "downside risks" by indicating that this risk has diminished "since the fall".
A computer-driven translation stage, TS1, is used to alter the reference path length to select different depths for C-scans while acquiring stacks of C-scans as well as scanning the depth in the B-scan acquisition mode.
As demonstrated in previous work by our researchers [ 8, 21] and others [ 22], the use of a galvanometer to alter the reference arm length appears to be a simple and easy way to avoid the necessity for a patch fiber and adjustment of the dispersion compensation.
We used a custom script to combine SNPs and indels for each strain into a single "patch" file, and a second script to read this patch file and alter the reference genome by changing, inserting or deleting nucleotides at the appropriate locations.
To determine the effect of read length on the ability to identify small indels, we altered the reference of supercontig 1 at evenly spaced intervals to simulate indels, aligned un-altered data to the altered reference, and then determined if maq was able to correctly identify the simulated indels.
Copy number variation (CNV): a segment of DNA (>1 kb) that is present at a variable copy number compared to the reference genome, altering the diploid status at a particular locus.
