Sentence examples for by fitting a general from inspiring English sources

The distributions of phylogenetic HA and NA trees were estimated by fitting a general time reversible (GTR) model with gamma distributed rates to nucleotide sequences using MrBayes 3.1.2 [70].

Stimulus-related effects were identified by fitting a general linear model whose predictors contained delta functions located at a constant offset from the task block onsets; in other words, a standard linear deconvolution approach to estimating the hemodynamic impulse response function without assumptions on its shape (see [17] for a description and evaluation of the method).

This was confirmed by fitting a general linear model of acceptance latency with the predictors' game length, initial offer, and their interaction.

These rates were compared between treatment arms by fitting a general linear model to the 140 cluster level rates (70 for men and 70 for women) with terms for the baseline cluster level prevalence, stratum, sex, and treatment arm.

Generalised estimating equations (GEE) were used to explore the relationship between speciality and referral scores by fitting a general linear model for the mean score that specified the within GP and within speciality correlation structure of the data.

PCR amplification success was analysed by fitting a general linear model (GLM) with binomial errors and logit link, correcting for over-dispersion, and using the number of samples successfully amplifying at each microsatellite locus as the response variable and the total number of samples as the binominal denominator.

The general shape of the functional relationship between the two variates was explored by fitting a generalized additive model to the data.

Progressive switch from loss of thigmotaxis, random search to non-spatial and spatial strategy was analyzed by fitting a multinomial general lineal model including trials as covariate.

First, we tested for heterozygote advantage by fitting a binomial General Linear Model (GLM) with disease status (0, 1) as the response and single locus heterozygosity (scored as 0 or 1) plus 'group' and the heterozygosity-group interaction terms as predictor variables.

Variables associated with current smoking were identified by fitting a logistic regression model with robust variance estimates to allow for clustering by general practice [ 20].

(2) If the shape parameter is unknown and the fitting is expected to be good for some shape parameter value p, a method for estimating p was given by fitting a General Gaussian distribution of shape p to the data, and then use this estimated shape parameter p to the Chi-p distribution to characterize the goodness of fitting.
