Of the remaining 512 subjects, 46 (9.0%) refused to participate and 136 (26.6%) were not contacted after the predetermined sample size (based on estimation of differences in adherence rates between rural and urban subjects) [ 16] had been achieved.
where g1,k(n) is the subband gain based on estimation of the SNR in subband k.
Wild-type and mutant allele frequencies chosen were based on estimation of the allele frequencies reported in the Japanese population [ 21].
The planned intervention period was two years, based on estimations of admission and consent rates in several other projects concerning similar hospital populations.
In addition, previous investigations suggested that the Mannar Basin is a prolific producer of both gas and oil in the currently explored deepwater area based on numerical estimation in the framework of the basin modelling and considering actual lithological composition (Ratnayake and Sampei 2015b).
This method is based on an estimation, in an iterative and nonparametric way, of the probability density function (pdf) of the soft decision of the received bit.
In "The effect of cooperation on localization systems using UWB experimental data" by D. Dardari et al., an extensive measurement campaign is described and the measured data are used to derive statistical ranging models based on TOA estimation in the presence of LOS and NLOS propagation conditions.
A general overview of CS is introduced in Section 2, and a collection of robust estimators, known as M-estimators, are discussed in Section 3. We then present a review of nonlinear methods based on robust estimation in Section 4. Section 5 is devoted to illustrate the performance of the reviewed methods in the reconstruction of sparse signals from compressive contaminated samples.
Therefore, Heckman's selection models will be used to produce analyses based on joint estimation in a regression model (for the outcome) and a logistic regression model (for the treatment selection), which permits these two processes to be linked.
As suggested by Tonegawa et al. (2013) based on anisotropic estimations in the northwestern Pacific region, S anisotropy within marine sediments in the outer rise region would be caused by aligned cracks and normal faulting formed by the bending of the Pacific Plate (Fig. 10a).
