The validity of justification on the SRCPSP depends on the priority rule and the activity duration variance.
In this equation, duration and output distributions are parameterized by duration mean, duration variance, voicing probability, output mean vector, and observation covariance matrix.
Duration variance was not affected by any other predictor variables.
However, duration variance decreased in the presence of distress calls (F1, 81 = 5.09 p = 0.027; with distress calls: n = 45, mean (ms) ± S.E.
We examined the effects and interactions of lights, fabrics, distress calls, date, time (minutes after sunset), and passes or collision on the duration, duration variance, IPI, and IPI variance using ANCOVA SPSSS version 17.0, SPSS Inc).
Non-European-American women had more blood oxygen desaturations during sleep, which accounted for 26% of sleep duration variance associated with ethnicity.
The sequence-to-sequence variability of these two behavioral features was independent as there was no correlation between the variability in sequence frequency and the variability in sequence duration (variance: R = 0.0135; Fano factor: R = 0.0119, Figure 2 figure supplement 1).
While numerous simulation studies report that sequencing patients by increasing order of variance of service duration (Smallest-Variance-First or SVF rule) performs extremely well in many environments, analytical results on optimal sequencing are known only for two patients.
For this study, the expected durations and variances of activities will be allowed to differ but the expected durations and variances for repetitions of a given activity will be fixed.
While the variability of sequence frequency decreased significantly throughout training (variance: F8,152 = 4.450, p < 0.0001, Figure 2C; Fano factor: F8,152 = 5.343, p < 0.0001, Figure 2E), the variability of sequence duration significantly increased (variance: F8,152 = 11.15, p < 0.0001, Figure 2D; Fano factor: F8,152 = 16.86, p < 0.0001, Figure 2F).
