Sentence examples for deviation rather than from inspiring English sources

It also makes sense to measure within-group variation in preferences using the mean absolute deviation rather than standard deviation.

This paper examines the pitfalls that arise when an outlier is assessed using a criterion based on a fixed multiple of the standard deviation rather than an established statistical test.

Furthermore, the regulatory paradigm often does not encourage the use of standard statistical techniques; for example, lowest detectable concentration levels in assays are defined in international guidelines as a simple multiple of standard deviation, rather than tests which are accepted in the statistical field as more reliable and more powerful.

Thankfully, the Mouse House incorporated the Fastpass system for Shanghai, with one notable deviation: Rather than a Fastpass machine at each ride, there's a distribution center for each land, covering a total of seven attractions.

We considered an extreme case in which the sensitivity differences between the different stimulus levels resulted only from a reduced standard deviation, rather than increased separation of the distribution.

We mistakenly illustrated the standard deviation rather than the standard error from the mean values in Figure 1H.

With an active feedback loop, the ramp gain becomes a product of two reciprocal ratios of capacitance, whose departure from unity is attributed to the relative deviations rather than the absolute values in the conventional passive RIS.

It may be more reasonable to make conclusions from, say, the mean temperature with one or two standard deviations rather than only the mean temperature drawn from the traditional heat transport equation.

MXL estimation accommodates unobserved taste heterogeneity by specifying preference parameters as random variables with means and standard deviations rather than fixed parameters.

Because the range of deviations computed by the objective function is different for each alternative, it is necessary to normalize it using relative deviations rather than absolute ones (see [19]).

The results confirm the apparent analogy between the definition of Nash equilibrium in non-cooperative and coalitional game theory: both strong and coalition-proof Nash equilibria reflect on unprofitability of coalition deviations rather than an individual player deviation.
