Then, the best candidate values are selected jointly for all the voxels by simultaneously maximizing a global mutual information-based cost function and a local spatial consistency cost function.
The necessity to use human volunteers as baits in mosquito traps inevitably limits their compactness, consistency, cost and safety, and has restricted the development of sustainable mosquito surveillance systems, especially in resource-limited countries [25].
What we gain in consistency costs us in precision and beauty.
Given the relatively short time horizon of the study, the consistency in cost allocation methods across the models of care and the small difference in costs found, this is unlikely to have had a significant effect on the findings of the study.
"We started round one with big expectations but consistency has cost us.
What we have here is a five-year track record of absolute consistency of cost overruns and delayed deliveries".
But Aravind can practice compassion successfully because it is run like a McDonald's, with assembly-line efficiency, strict quality norms, brand recognition, standardization, consistency, ruthless cost control and above all, volume.
The objective is to put these different approaches to design sensitivity analysis in the context of accuracy and consistency, computational cost, and implementation options and effort.
Tomic, who lost 6-3 6-2 in the first round of the Madrid Masters claycourt tournament to Czech Radek Stepanek on Sunday, has long been tipped for the top but despite his strong showing in grand slam events, a lack of consistency has cost him a higher ranking.
Admittedly, I find factory farming to be appalling but it would benefit chefs the nation over if you and your colleagues showed us how to meet consistency and cost without having to resort to such offensive practices?
The RE-AIM framework examines five dimensions: Reach into target populations; Effectiveness; Adoption by target settings, institutions, and staff; Implementation, including consistency and cost of delivery; and Maintenance of effects in both individuals and settings over time.
