The results were subsequently compared against the year prior to closure.
Typically classification research compares results against prior methods as a benchmark for improvements in accuracy; however, we were unable to find any previously published methods for the specific task of identifying violent extremist recruitment using text classification techniques.
When compared against CHWs interviewed in 2011 (n = 53), prior to the start of MNCH CHW program, the ratio of male to female CHWs was similar over time.
Prior to application the model was compared against the invasion percolation approach and found more suitable for the present study, in particular as it allows a more versatile presentation of boundary conditions.
To calculate relative risk, exposure during the period of time prior to the event (case period) is compared against the same subject's exposure during one or more control periods.
In the field case studies, resistivity images are compared against subsurface structure defined from borings, GPR surveys, and knowledge of prior land use.
Distillate treatments were compared against a 10% propylene glycol treatment, a gum only control, and negative control on 2.5 × 2.5 × 2.5 cm cubes (n = 50) that were dipped into solutions prior to conducting mite bioassays.
Next, the target signature is compared against other signatures.
