Finally, to provide guidance for coastal engineers and operators, we recommend the peaks over threshold method and define an objective approach for setting up the model.
Accordingly, our objective is to obtain an estimate for the reverberation amount or alternately for the perceived speech quality, based on the received signals alone (without a priori information of the RIR), and to blindly define an objective criterion for the direct-to-reverberation ratio.
A limitation of FBA, MOMA and FVA is the difficulty to define a relevant objective function: for example, the objective function to predict cell growth typically involves a linear combination of more than 100 metabolites (Raman and Chandra, 2009).
Previous studies have failed to define a quantifiable objective function for optimization, have not used any optimization algorithms, and have only considered a limited design space (4 or less design variables).
The goal of this approach is to define a multi-objective design approach for the determination of feasible design options.
Rather than being told to achieve "price stability" and left to define that objective for itself, it should be given an explicit inflation target by the Council of Ministers (in the same way that the Bank of England is set an inflation target by the Treasury).
The paper has also the objective to define a procedure for computing indicator values.
Defining health problems requires both a clearly defined objective for asking the question(s), and an understanding about how different indicators can be combined to produce a target sample of adequate size and appropriate composition.
To measure the quality of the solutions given by the combination of a constructive heuristic followed by a local search, we define a lower bound for the objective function that counts the number of bad rows in a solution, i.e. a lower bound on the minimal number of rows to remove from the matrix so that, for the remaining rows, there is an order of the columns with no bad row.
The objective of the present study is to assess the extent to which the Project has been effective in attaining the set objectives, and to define a roadmap for the future role of UNICEF in the sector.
In the present study, expected learning outcomes have been used to define the objectives for an educational programme [ 11].
