Sentence examples for although the deviance of from inspiring English sources

Although the deviance of the final model suggested that main effects fit very well the data (deviance = 1,481 with DF = 2,106; p = 1.00), we looked for additional two-way interaction effects using a backward selection.

The overdispersion parameter (c-hat) was calculated as the ratio between the mean deviance of simulated models and the deviance of the observed model [18].

The deviance of this model was G = 8852.9.

We then computed the deviance of the fitted model and summed the deviances for that given threshold over all cities.

These plots showed reasonable fits, but the deviance of NB1 (2,556) was lower than the deviance of NB2 (2,763).

This is indicated by its deviance G = 2881.45, which was only slightly less than the deviance of Model I.

The deviance of the natural spline model fitted to the cohort studies was smaller than the deviance of the corresponding linear model [deviance = 8.43 and 11.97 respectively; chi square test (1 df), p = 0.06].

We then computed the deviance of the fitted model for all cities for a given threshold value, and the average deviance for that threshold over all cities.

Table  2 shows the deviances of the different models used.

Although the deviance explained increases to 41.8% for 95% Kernel Home Range size, the diagnostics only improve marginally, whereas for 50% Kernel Home Range size the diagnostics improved and the deviance explained increased to 44.7%.

The deviance, a measure of model fit, was minimized for both CLL and non-CLL analyses when we set the lag interval to either 1 or 2 years [see Supplemental Material, Table S1 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1289/ehp.1204996 ], although the deviances were very similar for up to a lag of 5 years.
