Hyperbolic and spherical geometry are the only two non-Euclidean geometries that are homogeneous and have isotropic distance metrics: in other words, there is a uniform, meaningful, and continuous concept of the distance between two points.
HRQOL is a continuous concept influenced by a person's objective assessments of function or health status as well as subjective perceptions of their personal health [ 12].
We instead focused on a continuous concept of mental health that is more sensitive to detecting change, including subclinical change [ 42].
For comparison with previous research it should be borne in mind that we have considered depression in late life to be a continuous concept.
Like in other comparable GRN rate laws (e.g. the synergistic-system [ 16]), the omega parameter (ω ij) represents two distinct biological concepts simultaneously; a discrete as well as a continuous concept.
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is a continuous concept influenced by a person's objective assessments of function or health status as well as subjective perceptions of their personal health [ 8].
Our operationalization [ 30] attempts to reflect allostatic load as a continuous concept including subclinical dysregulations across multiple physiological systems [ 29], while also including information on medication that could conceal the presence of dysregulations.
When the normality assumption was met, parametric tests were used for likert-type scales (EPIC, EBP Beliefs and Implementation Scales) based on the fact that each scale represents an underlying continuous concept and has relatively equal intervals [ 24].
In ANN and Hill laws [ 2, 13] and similar (e.g. the synergistic-system [ 16]) rate laws, the ω ij parameters simultaneously represent the presence or absence of transcript synthesis regulators (a discrete concept) and the strength of their regulatory influence (a continuous concept).
Interface electronics for micromechanical sensors range from open loop, purely switched capacitor (SC) circuits to closed loop, partially force feedback as well as time-continuous concepts.
