Lil Wayne is wide awake on "Help," a track driven by a sample of the Beatles song, which his lawyers at Universal would probably have had a hard time getting permission for him to use on an album.
"Honey," an urgent, up-tempo dance tune driven by a sample from a decades-old blues recording, was used in two different soap operas; the lush synthesizer strains of "Porcelain" tinkled on the soundtrack of the Leonardo DiCaprio movie "The Beach" and in television commercials for a car, a washing machine and Microsoft.
The method we describe now uses pair-wise sample compatibility to drive sample selection, that is, it builds an n r -sized solution by adding individual samples to the solution, the preference being guided by the previously included samples and their compatibility with the as of yet not selected samples.
One of the primary objectives of this study was to draw comparisons between unescorted (walking) and escorted (walking or driven) children in a sample living within two kilometers from school with regard to compositional and contextual dimensions, and parental AST related perceptual differences.
A traditional power calculation is not appropriate in calculating a sample size for a DCE, where rules of thumb and experience drive the sample size decision.
Such alternative sampling methods, are – among others – random digit dialling (telephone numbers), random routes or random walk, time location sampling, capture-recapture, GPS based sampling (within a specific place), and respondent driven sampling or snowball sampling (based on networks) (for a detailed overview see Reichel & Morales, 2017).
Cloud-connected health technology can drive huge sample sizes, potentially revolutionizing both what we know about human health, and how we find that information.
The interactive PCA allows for visualization of the correlations among samples and metabolite features that drive the sample clustering.
Respondent driven sampling and a snowball sampling strategies were used starting in locations where respondents were known by service providers to frequent.
