The DSS stratified the schools into similarly-efficient groupings based upon their energy and waste usage.
Training thereby makes perceptual grouping more efficient, since the groupings can now be extracted rapidly and in parallel, replacing the slower, serial incremental-grouping process.
In addition to audio-recording the above tasks, both investigators completed a detailed scoring rubric that permitted efficient specification of card sort groupings as well as participant explanations for their groupings (the rubric is available from the senior author upon request).
As the extensive number of genes in the C. elegans genome poses a problem for many labor intensive screens these groupings provide an efficient tool for focusing efforts on likely candidate genes.
In this sense, the stratification module could be viewed as a type of benchmarking, since the module creates various different performance groupings of peer-efficient schools to which any underperforming schools could be benchmarked.
However, the more rare variant groupings and tests considered, the less efficient and more computationally intensive the approach will be compared to that which most accurately tests the true underlying model.
Networks - i.e. groups of entities (nodes or vertices) pairs of which are linked through a form of common property (edges or links) - have formed an efficient representation framework for a variety of complex systems such as social groupings and internet connectivity [ 1].
Agendas and groupings have merged.
The groupings were largely random.
You now operate within groupings.
