More specifically, an empirical measure of discriminability quantifies the degree to which innocent suspects are correctly sorted into the "innocent" category while, at the same time, guilty suspects are correctly sorted into the "guilty" category.
Although the DR is a purely empirical (i.e., non-theoretical) measure in that it appeals to no model of latent memory strengths, it does not measure empirical discriminability, which refers to the degree to which innocent and guilty suspects are correctly sorted into their true categories.
In the situation where the chronology of business cycles is a given and (y_{t}) is, say, a linear combination of leading indicators, the more clear the separation between the empirical distribution of (y_{t}) when (s_{t}=1) from when (s_{t}=0), the easier it will be to correctly sort the data into expansion and recession when making predictions.
To validate the accuracy of the CCS in correctly allowing admissions to be sorted into the four indications for admission, the ICD-9 codes in each category were individually reviewed after assignment.
Ideally this order sorting would have perfect efficiency, that is, all first-order events would be correctly identified.
Thousands of soluble and membrane proteins that, in general, are correctly folded, modified, sorted and assembled to produce highly authentic recombinant proteins have been cloned and expressed.
Fetal E/e or e/e Rh genotype was determined correctly in 15 of 16 sample fractions that underwent magnetic bead separation with CD45 and were subsequently sorted into positive and negative fractions (94%).
The codes were then sorted into categories.
