In this study, a 95%% confidence level is assumed, meaning that α = 0.025.
Finite buffers are assumed, meaning that under congestion incoming packets that do not fit into their corresponding queue will be dropped.
The infinite rupture velocity was assumed, meaning that both the coseismic seafloor deformation and the initial sea-surface displacement started and stopped simultaneously over the whole source region.
Additionally, an any-sink property is assumed, meaning that several sinks may exist, and delivery to any one of them is sufficient.
As sediment quality, Class ecotoxicology 1 according to [42] was assumed, meaning that there are no or low eco-toxicological effects.
The authors use the term 'cryptic' splice sites throughout the manuscript (I assume meaning 'aberrantly activated'), but some of the events discovered could be alternative exon ends.
For high-dimensional problems, a sparsity condition is assumed meaning that 'most' of the d covariates have zero weights across all the tasks.
As an additional constraint, a quasi steady state is assumed, meaning that the total amount of any metabolite being produced must equal the total amount of that metabolite being consumed.
Collective responsibility assumed meaning: in Serbia, as in Germany after 1933, the majority silenced their consciences, if they had any.
Patient consent in that instance is assumed (meaning patients are not asked to consent), based on an interpretation of NHS healthcare data-sharing guidelines for so-called "direct patient care" that has been questioned by data protection experts and criticized by health data privacy advocacy group MedConfidential.
