We evaluated the performance of our MC algorithm using various simulations, and now, we compare our method to other classifiers using the logical criteria of calculation complexity, duration of calculations (i.e., how fast they classify different modulations), and their performance in low SNR (i.e., how accurately they classify).
In cases where the stop was produced with voicing or as an approximant, the main determinants for the calculation of duration were the disappearance of formant-structure, in the first case, and the drop in amplitude.
Details about calculation of duration of carriage can be found in Web Appendix 1, available at http://aje.oxfordjournals.org/.org/
The point of time for loss of motor function was used as the starting time point for calculation of duration of absence of DPP.
Vital signs were recorded continuously, enabling calculation of duration of shock and cumulative time passed with a mean blood pressure of less than 60 mmHg.
Just like the APC diagram allows for all possible combinations of period, cohort and age we may consider the vector space P spanning all possible instances of p. The calculation of durations between events as described in Proposition 2 can then be understood as a linear transformation from a vector space P whose bases represent events to a duration vector space D whose bases represent durations.
Table 6 shows the result of the SMR calculations for duration of and time since first employment simultaneously.
Females which did not present cessations of their ovulatory activity were not included in the calculations of duration of the breeding seasons or duration of the anovulatory periods.
Under these inevitable circumstances, calculations of duration of colonization may underestimate the true duration of colonization and the pattern of clearance.
