The ability to swap very rapidly from a non-enhanced mode of operation to an enhanced mode whilst retaining the existing sensitivity, speed, and functionality of a conventional tandem quadrupole mass spectrometer is also described.
The existing sensitivity-based system identification technique is extended by adopting the antiresonant frequencies and the static compliance dominant frequencies, and the performance of the approach using additional spectral information is compared with the approach using only natural frequencies via a numerical example of a mechanical system.
Finally, we widen existing sensitivity analyses to the setting with intermediate confounding, exploiting the SEM framework.
Here we investigate: 1) how identification assumptions affect the specification of SEMs, 2) whether the more restrictive SEM assumptions can be relaxed, and 3) whether existing sensitivity analyses can be extended to this setting.
People elevate and savor facts that conform to their pre-existing sensitivities.
However, not all existing global sensitivity analysis measures can compute such a sensitivity matrix.
The ability to detect existing cancers (sensitivity), estimated from all studies, resulted to be about 98%% while the ability to recognise the normal condition in the absence of any false-positive finding (specificity), estimated from six studies reporting raw data, was about 58%%.
In this study, we estimate land cover fraction at a satellite pixel scale by employing an existing 'Mean-Sensitivity Unmixing Algorithm' (MSUA), which is based on a state space defined by two key variables: (1) mean pixel values (referring to mean vegetation states), and (2) inter-annual sensitivity of pixel values to precipitation (referring to vegetation sensitivity to precipitation).
Increasing throughput reduces the cost of TB culture substantially (Table 3), but similar or greater gains in cost-effectiveness could be achieved by targeting TB culture to regions with high TB prevalence and poor existing diagnostic sensitivity for smear-negative TB (Figure 2).
Visible and ultraviolet light photons are emitted as the displaced electrons in the water molecules restore themselves to equilibrium and these light photons can be detected with existing high-sensitivity bioluminescence imaging systems.
In patients, the age, the quality of tear film, the individual sensitivity of the ocular surface, a pre-existing sensitivity or allergy, and the overall number of BAC-containing eye-drops and duration of administration could all be considered to influence the impact of toxic preservative on ocular tissues and may explain wide individual variations.
