For uncorrelated data, one expects a median correlation of 0. Furthermore, the longer the segment length the more will the coefficient distribution tighten up with a peak at zero correlation.
Analysts say reviving a fashion brand can take as long as six years; viewed in that light, Mr. De Sole said, weak sales at Yves Saint Laurent are normal and to be expected as the company unwinds licensing deals and tightens distribution.

The tightened distribution of the MFC frequencies is clearly illustrated in the cumulative frequency distribution plot, suggesting that identification of subclonal populations by frequency comparisons may be both more accurate and precise following iteration.
Overall, the SNV frequencies tend to increase with iteration, exemplified by the tightened distribution to the MFC founder genotype between reference locations 200 and 450 (black circle), corresponding to the region with the greatest increase of coverage.
First, tighten up distribution of Android by lengthening the period between a new "Google Android" release and the AOSP release.
Thus, KO-families with higher representation may cover a larger evolutionary space of proteins but the effect is to lower the median score and tighten the distribution of the identities, while the identities at low KO representation are much more dispersed with an inflated median.
Our numencal results on stress distributions in a tightened gasket indicate that taper-seal gasket realizes highly stable seal pressure even under a lower tightening torque.
But is that a good strategy — to reduce production? A. We're doing the opposite of the conventional way to build a brand: we're limiting the production and tightening the exclusive distribution.
"Any action to tighten control on distribution and sale is a step in the right direction, but, hopefully, it leads to further steps," said Mr. Spitzer, who has not seen the new Sturm, Ruger contracts.
