The phrase "average of negative" is not correct and lacks clarity in written English.
It could be used in contexts discussing statistical measures or mathematical concepts, but it needs to be more specific, such as "average of negative numbers."
Example: "To find the average of negative numbers in the dataset, we first sum all the negative values and then divide by the count of those values."
Alternatives: "mean of negative values" or "average of negative numbers.".
Murphy's oldest publication, California Technology Stock Letter, has fared much worse: down 53.8% for the first half of 2002 and returning an average of negative 36.5% a year for the last five years.
Joseph Granville has been around for ages, but his Granville Market Letter's return shows an average of negative 22% a year for the last 22 years, according to the Hulbert Financial Digest.
Background was modeled for each mass of RNA as the average of negative control transcript counts plus three standard deviations.
The assay was repeated three times and a percent difference from the average of negative control siRNA transfected cells was calculated for each reported parameter.
Some of the genes located within CNV regions were not included in the analysis because their expression levels were below the average of negative control genes included in the array (bacterial genes lysA, pheA, thrB and trpF) across the different experiments (6.139), indicating that the hybridization to the array probes is below the level of detection.
Data from a given participant were excluded if they met any of the following criteria: average response to PHA <400 spot-forming cells (SFC /200,000 PBMC; average of negative control wells >20 SFC/200,000 PBMC; day 2 viability less than 66%; or blood obtained outside the allowable visit window.
This same study, of over 2,500 such deals, found that after the investment, existing shareholders receive average returns of negative 22 percent, compared with average gains of 27 percent for the PIPE investor.
The following non-dimensional parameters are introduced: (26) (27) (28)where is the average value of negative non-dimensional bed stress, is the average value of positive non-dimensional bed stress, is the total average non-dimensional bed stress, is the calculated non-dimensional bed stress at time t, with and corresponding to negative and positive bed stress values, respectively.
From these measurements, a cutoff for positive identification was defined as the average of the negative control plus three negative control standard deviations (dashed line at 0.59 in Table 2).
Not only are most D values positive, but the average magnitude of positive D estimates is greater than the average magnitude of negative D estimates.
We also constructed a variable identifying two groups of patients: (i) extreme positives (patients with scores two standard deviations above the average number of positive ratings) and (ii) extreme negatives (two standard deviations below the average number of negative ratings) and used this variable as dependent in multivariate analyses.
