An observation was carried out by one observer (an individual observation) or, in order to calculate the inter-observer reliability, by two independent observers simultaneously (a contemporaneous observation).
This study was designed to provide additional information to the previous studies on inter-observer variability, especially in the response evaluation setting, and to test the hypothesis, which the more subjective, visual approach to interpretation will have a larger dependency on the individual observer than the more objective method: PERCIST 1.0.
It can be seen in figure 1, that the lines corresponding to the individual observer follow a parallel pattern.
Each individual "observer" may present an incomplete view of the event based on their limited perspective.
Note that the fits were done for each individual observer separately; we averaged the observed and model quantile distributions in Fig. 4 merely for illustration purposes.
In other words, this is particularly true if a nest's visibility on a particular day depends more on the individual observer, the specific day or the specific decay stage the nest is at as opposed to invariant properties of the nest that would affect its visibility (e.g., nest height, surrounding vegetation.
One question is whether we should expect such a reference to an ideal public to result in outcomes different from the reference to an (individual) ideal observer.
Leadership, of course, can be defined in a myriad of ways, and for the individual observer it usually comes down to "I know it when I see it".
We used an automated procedure to check annotation records of individual observer for errors or potential problems.
Although sample evaluation is eased by automated counting, recording and re-localisation of fluorescent cells, the decision on whether an individual cell is a tumour cell still depends on the skills of the individual observer.
