Even with constrained wingspans, opinions on giant pterosaur masses are extremely controversial with fivefold differences in mass estimations existing for some taxa [24] The half-tonne azhdarchid recently proposed by Henderson [25] makes previous 'heavy' estimates look positively lean in comparison, being a predicted mass almost double that of any previously published figure.
It is indicated that robust M-estimation outperforms existing methods of estimation in terms of statistical precision and computational speed, while keeping good robustness properties.
At this point, it is worthy to pay attention to an important aspect regarding low-level vision - the motion estimation - existing nowadays.
However, its estimation with existing numerical techniques is computationally expensive, motivating the search for approximate analytical methods.
Numerical examples of an existing long span bridge under simulated non-stationary hurricane winds and vehicles are presented to demonstrate the effects of the dynamic loads and corrosions on the fatigue life estimation of existing bridges.
Furthermore, no study has, on the basis of the bias of the method, proposed new methods with a lower bias nor considered the implications of the bias estimation for existing published studies.
Now that we can have an estimation from existing differences in D cc in two various directions, we compute both changes by using the formulas (18) and (20) for specific dimer number, for example, N y = 29, for the state of AGNR without hydrogen.
Models included: direct estimation through existing couple-years of protection (CYP) conversion factors, bivariate linear regression, and multivariate linear regression.
Nursing assistants assisted in the development of the Food and Fluid Estimation Diagram (FFED) by providing feedback on existing estimation methods.
In addition, the accuracy of chirp rate estimation using the existing method will be affected by the NZ index estimation result.
As for a parameter estimation based on discrete-time observations, Sørensen [17] gave an excellent survey of existing estimation techniques for stationary and ergodic diffusion processes observed at discrete points in time.
