At the same time that schools maintained discriminatory acts, individual teachers might choose to fight for the rights of the pregnant students.
13 14 Opponents argue that a lifetime ban on blood donation by men who have sex with men is discriminatory, infringes individual rights, is disproportionate to risk, and reduces the supply of available blood.
Such an outcome is also backed by social psychologists who provide ample evidence, mainly based on experiments, for a rejection-identification mechanism: in response to discriminatory treatment, individuals identify with their group more strongly to buffer negative consequences for their self-esteem (e.g., Branscombe et al. 1999).
In this paper, we presented a feature selection method for gene data classification that is based on the assessment of discriminatory ability of individual features within a class.
Accordingly, the overall function of the immune system may be defined as maintenance of molecular (antigenic) homeostasis (Poletaev, Stepanyuk and Gershwin 2008) and thus a collective basis for reactivity – not the discriminatory power of individual lymphocytes – determines identity and immune specificity (Daëron 2014).
The proposition would give the commissioner the power to reject "excessive," "inadequate" or "unfairly discriminatory" rates for individual and small-group plans before they go into effect.
For the selection of features to include in SVMs we used the F-score, which measures the discriminatory power of individual features.
One potential problem with expression-based classification is that cellular heterogeneity within tissues and genetic heterogeneity between samples may decrease the discriminatory power of individual genes in complex diseases [18], [19].
Because the discriminatory powers of individual MIRU-VNTR markers vary according to the strain lineage [12], [28], Comas et al. [28] recommended to use only small lineage-specific subsets (i.e. 3 to 9) of the most discriminatory markers, after pre-identification of the lineage based on SNPs.
The individual discriminatory power of 22 MIRU-VNTR loci were analyzed.
