Guy has spent years refining such oblique cost-benefit analyses in his research and, more recently, in projects in New Orleans, Philadelphia and Boston, trying to expand our criteria for efficiency beyond sheer speed.
WMD suggests suitable amiRNA candidates after a two-step selection process based on empirically established criteria for efficiency and specificity and is improved as the knowledge on the biology of miRNAs grows [21], [25], [27].
The data was analysed according to the CERF's Performance Accountability Framework, and criteria for efficiency, effectiveness, relevance and appropriateness.
Then, the ratio of the GSI selection response over the PSI selection response (Equation 8) was a good criterion for comparing PSI efficiency vs. GSI efficiency because each selection response included all the information on the genetic gains for each selection index in each selection cycle.
As the number of operations is one of the most critical criteria for the efficiency, the correlation algorithm must be implemented according to this optimization.
The measured values of electron diffusion coefficient and electron lifetime are discussed and related to the design criteria for high efficiency nanocrystalline photovoltaic cells.
Using a financial criteria for water efficiency rather than an engineering one appears a sensible approach when assessing irrigation performance at the farm level, since any managerial (e.g. scheduling) and operational (e.g. equipment) inefficiencies associated with irrigation are implicitly included in the assessment.
Among many other software programs, Transhis, a windows-based EMR system, incorporating episode of care and reminder systems was selected to serve as the supporting electronic interface based on defined criteria for appropriateness, efficiency, and feasibility for the general clinical practice [ 30].
Since its introduction by Sokal and Rohlf [10], the cophenetic correlation coefficient has been widely used in numerical phenetic studies, both as a measure of degree of fit of a classification to a set of data and as a criterion for evaluating the efficiency of various clustering techniques [11].
The most commonly used criterion for evaluating the efficiency of a learning procedure is the Area Under the ROC curve (ROC AUC).
