When dealing with indices, we adopt the following conventions: (i,j,k,ldotsin{1,ldots,n}), (alpha,beta,gammain{0,ldots,n}), and (a,b,ldots,in{ 0,ldots,n+1}).
Recently, there were a number of reports dealing with platelet indices such as mean platelet volume (MPV); MPV/platelet count (PC) ratios have clinical indications in various conditions such as atherosclerosis, 8 9 cerebral infarction 10 and active inflammatory diseases; 11 12 high MPV was even associated with fractures.
We deal with an index concept to study the solvability and use Lyapunov functions as a tool to approach the stability problem.
On the other hand, in meta-analysis, there is little discussion on how to deal with missing index test outcomes [ 6].
The distribution of onshore vegetation was extracted by using Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index, one of the indices dealing with vegetative activity, and then was classified into two vegetation types by the supervised classification method using [Natural Environmental Resources and their Oil Spill Protection Priorities for the Coastline of Abu Dhabi Emirate, U.A.E., p. 120, 2000] as the supervisor.
Moreover, both AHP and entropy methods are analytical approaches designed to handle deterministic situations, and they may not be capable of dealing with uncertainties in the index calculation procedure.
Motivated by the analytical difficulties in dealing with the conventional robustness index, e.g., maximum sensitivity, we introduce the relative delay margin as a good alternative, which gives much simpler robust analysis.
The main characteristics of ANNs dealing with quantitative and qualitative indices include large-scale parallel distributed processing, continuously nonlinear dynamics, collective computation, high fault-tolerance, self-organization, self-learning and real-time treatment (Rumelhart and McClelland 1986).
As the demand for RAM space increases, specially for user applications dealing with multimedia or document indexing, the responsiveness of a desktop operating system under memory thrashing continues to be a relevant research issue.
Two indices dealing with alcohol (ab use were constructed.
