And in the third, Mr. Alagna rose to considerable flexibility in the shaping of words and lines.
A lithium polymer battery has features such as flexibility in the shape of a cell design, leak proof of electrolyte, high safety, etc., but poses the challenge of how close its electrical performance can be made to that of a liquid electrolyte cell.
We used regression terms for complication group and an interaction between this and LOS to allow some flexibility in the shape of the relationship across groups.
Thus, a single model was deemed appropriate to capture the relationship in all of the groups using interaction terms between the LOS variable and group indicators to allow flexibility in the shape of the association across complication types.
We concentrate on models on the log cumulative hazard scale where the idea was to extend the Weibull model, which is a parametric proportional hazards model often criticised for the lack of flexibility in the shape of the baseline hazard function.
The top three equations with one external parameter (equations [15] [17]) have a mean RMSD of 0.144 v.u., which indicates that although the presence of an external parameter removes some flexibility in the shape of the curve, it does not necessarily reduce the fit.
Reducing inherently continuous data, such as MGMT methylation, into binary (methylated/unmethylated) is not generally statistically efficient, and so in our exploratory analyses considering the individual CpGs we used the continuous data, and fitted models that allowed flexibility in the shape of any relationship between methylation% and outcome beyond a simple linear relationship.
The BIEM has often been believed to have advantages over domain-type methods in computational accuracy when dealing with discrete inhomogeneities (e.g., Benites et al., 1992; Liu and Zhang, 2001), and in a great flexibility regarding the shapes of scatterers.
The following illustrates that SigShrink makes it possible to achieve this because of its flexibility (see the shapes of SigShrink functions given in Figure 2) and the artifact-free denoising they perform (see Figures 4 and 5).
"This is a beautiful piece of work for continuous synthesis of particles, with great flexibility in the shapes that can be produced," says Howard Stone, a professor of engineering at Harvard University.
