Clarity Index S-CVI = 0.93 Equivalence Index S-CVI = 0.50 The SMEs were instructed to evaluate the cross-cultural equivalence between the OHIP-14 in English (OHIP-14E) and OHIP-14 K.
In the cultural equivalence index, the SMEs were asked to evaluate the semantic, colloquial, experiential and conceptual equivalence, rather than linguistic or literal equivalence of the translation using the scale: 0 = not at all equivalent, 1 = somewhat equivalent, 2 = mostly equivalent, and 3 = equivalent.
A more detailed hierarchy was used by Xu and Johnson [32] to define Molecular Equivalence Indices (MEQIs) as tools for molecular similarity measures.
Moreover, considerable disagreement existed among the experts in regard to the relevance (Kfree = 0.19 to 1.00) and the cultural equivalence indexes (ADM = 0.36 to 0.96).
ADM for the clarity and cultural equivalence indices was calculated as the sum of the differences between individual ratings and the mean in absolute values divided by the total number of ratings.
For example, the well pattern density and the single-well-controlled geological reserves are equivalence relationship indexes.
Thus, based on analysis of equivalence relationship, the indexes, e.g., the single-well-controlled geological reserves, the oil increment of single-well time of treatment, and economic limit water cut of old wells, were eliminated.

The result showed that the distributions of the contact pressure between tenon and mortise, the equivalence stress and reliability index were more reasonable.
This study evaluated apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) equivalence and acceptability of a new pediatric CPAP mask for children aged 2-7 years (Pixi; ResMed Ltd ,Sydney, Australia).Patients aged 2-7 years were enrolled and underwent in-lab baseline polysomnography (PSG) using their previous mask, then used their previous mask and the VPAP III ST-A flow generator for ≥ 10 nights at home.
The number of blocks (equivalence classes) is the index | G : H | and the block containing α is just the orbit H.
