The backbone of the modeling was an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) analysis, integrating elements of a modified failure mode effect analysis (FMEA), and which proved to be an invaluable tool for making fully accountable, fully documented, transparent, and justified decisions.
Solar radiation distribution, air exchange by ventilation, and crop transpiration constituted the backbones of the model.
13 As a second step, it was important to verify that the regulation directionality of predicted active hypotheses was concordant with respect to the expected cascade of causal molecular events modeled in the backbone of the CPN model (Fig. 6).
The former one is more significant to the study as is a relevant construct to the whole model, the later one in the conceptualization of the overall model is more an artifice than a backbone element of the model.
However, our approach is very sensitive to structural perturbations and it works well only if the backbone conformation of the model presents a distribution of bond lengths, angles and dihedrals similar to the one found in X-ray solved three-dimensional protein structures.
Perhaps more judicious weighting of the two terms or exclusion of one of them would improve the backbone stereochemistry of the model without compromising convergence.
With the Rd.HMM protocol [ 39], we used the coordinates of the backbone atoms of the model (after replacement of sequence information with random amino acid sequences) to retrieve the N. alata NaTrxh amino acid sequence from the NCBI nr protein database [ 40] with a statistical significance substantially higher than the one for the H. vulgare sequence (homology modeling template protein).
Structural alignments of the backbones of the models and computation of root mean square deviations or RMSDs were performed with DeepView, which is available through the ExPASy Web site.
For decades, care for patients living with conditions like HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis has incorporated exactly the kind of care management and coordination that is the backbone of the Health Home model.
Then, the relevant scientific literature is reviewed to extract causal relationships that comprise the nodes and edges in backbone of the literature model.
