The couple is shown to give the best agreement in terms of TMF lifetime estimation when compared with more simple TMF design approaches and an other constitutive model.
Also, it was observed that the proposed correlations for Vs and Es provide better estimation when compared with the commonly used correlations in carbonate reservoirs.
The results of this study demonstrated that all texture parameters particularly band texture ratios calculated using a 3 × 3 window size, could enhance AGB estimation when compared to simple spectral reflectance, simple band ratios and the most popular spectral vegetation indices.
Figure 9 Importance of model estimation when compared to a blind authentication test.
In this case the PM method produced the better estimation, when compared with other methods like averaging and global linear regression (see below).
The multinomial logistic model is used to deal with nominal response data, which requires even more coefficients and hence more observations for proper estimation when compared to the ordinal logistic model.
These algorithms were developed with the specific aim of offering a significant reduction in examination time but without sacrificing any loss in the accuracy of threshold estimation when compared to the Full Threshold and FASTPAC algorithms [ 16, 17].
Of the 86 children included in the data analyses for this report (see "Pulmonary function measures," below), 82 were located within 5 km of their respective community monitoring location, resulting in great improvement in exposure estimation when compared with the preexisting monitoring sites in Detroit or with the geographic representativeness of exposure estimates for many previous studies.
The results of the laboratory measurements demonstrate that the proposed calibration method can greatly improve the accuracy of the velocity and thickness estimations when compared with the conventional method.
In addition to this measure of clustering, the bias (average under- or over-estimation, when compared to manufacturer-reported figures) for these countries averaged −13% (range −19% to +2%, with the exception of Bangladesh (−25%) and Vietnam (−39%)).
