In Taguchi method, a loss function is used to put the cost of deviation from target into perspective.
In the third sample to achieve the ideal coating, the rate of torch gas is reduced, as well as the carrier gas, which leads to reduction in deviation from target (fixed distance).
Mean±s.e.m. performance in the AP group was 0.08±1.89 semitones deviation from target, whereas mean performance in the NAP group was 0.58±10.83 semitones deviation from target.
We analyzed risk factors for SCFN regarding demographic factors, cooling methods and deviation from target temperature range during hypothermia therapy.
Disadvantages are that only limited deviation from target sampling times is allowed and that the LSS is only applicable for patients with similar characteristics as for whom the strategy was developed.
During a 1-year period while these samples were being analyzed, the accuracy was within 5% or on average < 0.2 μg/dL deviation from target values for 48 proficiency test samples (analyzed in masked fashion) across a wide range of values (0 100 μg/dL).
The use of A1C for diagnosing diabetes has the advantage that, in subjects with A1C ≥6.5% (i.e., diabetes), baseline A1C is already measured and deviation from target is immediately available (no A1C measurement as a second step after FPG assessment).
The deviations from target levels at the end of different stages of all calibration events are minimized by the proposed method to improve the reliability of flood control operation.
Such policies do allow for deviation from borrowing targets if they are due to the weakness of the economy, our correspondent says.
The owl had to turn its head into the correct direction, defined by the azimuthal and elevational components that the stimulus provided, within a target window of ±10° azimuthal and elevational deviation from the target position.
A quasi first-depart-first-hold (FDFH) rule is applied to the design of schedule- and headway-based holding control allowing for overtaking, with the objective to minimise the deviation from the targeted headway.
