CIs were adjusted for the added uncertainty from any factors not captured by the model by including a scale parameter in the regression model.
By including a dispersion parameter in the empty two-level models, we estimated the extra-binomial variation to be 0.86 for cows and 0.94 for young animals.
An agent-based model developed by including a 'threshold' parameter into Thomas Schelling's model of racial segregation [ 100] led to a rather robust emergent clustering behaviour that, despite being amenable to empirical verification, is practically quite challenging to validate due to unavailability of reliable and extensive data [ 67].
We allowed the time effect to differ between 1991 2006 and 2007 2009 for this region by including an additional parameter, ��tr, that was multiplied by an indicator variable that equaled one for this region from 2007 2009 and zero everywhere else.
In this paper, we extend the JW method by including an additional parameter to decrease the emphasis on rare favourable alleles over the time horizon, with the purpose of further improving the long-term genetic gain.
This mechanism, extends the leaky bucket algorithm which imposes a hard limit on the source transmission rate [34] by including a new input parameter, the cycle duration.
A new mathematical model, based on the classical Sieverts' law, is proposed to predict this particular behavior by including a new fitting parameter defined as the ratio of the gas-palladium surface in both retentate and permeate sides of the membrane.
The published weighted sum method was modified by using linearly decaying weights for additional datasets, and by including a new free parameter, T, which represents a minimum LLS threshold on the data sets being integrated.
Based on the gradient of CD8+ T-cell density as distance increases from an ulcer edge, we assumed that contiguous regions might be immunologically codependent, by including a new fitting parameter to estimate the extent that CD8+ T-cell density in contiguous regions affected CD8+ T-cell density within a new ulcer region ('Methods'Methods
