In this paper, we examine outputs from the smart education research community and the ITLET standards community to identify how evolving conceptual frameworks could inform specification work stabilizing the core terminology (e.g., as in smart technologies) in order to promote innovation.
We implemented the procedure devised by Al-Shahrour and colleagues [ 23, 24] to examine outputs flexibly (Additional file 1).
Descriptive analysis and frequencies were used to describe absolute outputs over time, examine outputs in different categories of GBD over time, geographical distribution of research/research institutions, collaborations, and funders.
When individual responses were examined, output increased significantly with rate in sixteen out of seventeen observations.
The behavior part was new: Traditional sensation and perception courses focus on input without examining output, Livingston says.
Convergence and mixing of chains in the Bayesian phylogenetic analyses were assessed by examining output files with the AWTY (Are We There Yet) graphical exploration software [ 36].
We assessed the convergence of MCMC samplings of population parameters in multiple ways by allowing analyses to run ensuring effective sample sizes were a minimum of 100 for all parameters, examining output graphs for unimodality, ensuring genealogies were updating, and checking that multiple runs gave similar estimates.
A Chief Bias Officer would conduct regular performance reviews with controlled tests of algorithms examining outputs, with continuous fine-tuning.
Results were confirmed by examining outputs from backwards and forwards stepwise regression analyses as evaluated by the probability of F (enter p ≤ 0.05, remove p ≥ 0.10).
When there was disagreement, the readers examined the test output in detail together and reached a consensus.
