The phrase "improvement phase" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a specific period or stage focused on enhancing or developing something.
Example: "During the improvement phase, the team implemented several strategies to boost productivity and efficiency."
Alternatives: "enhancement stage" or "development period".
The aim of the improvement phase was to further improve the initiated pre-bridging germplasm from the discovery phase.
Although the best solutions are usually generated after the improvement phase, there is usually a high computational cost for employing a local search algorithm.
The proposed heuristic is composed of two phases: a solution construction phase including a local optimization component and a deletion and re-insertion improvement phase.
Then, a multi-start two-phase heuristic solution method is proposed consisting of an insertion-based construction phase and a local search-based improvement phase.
Finally, aiming at reliability-related decision-making and predicting the evolution behavior of a system, we report the relations of the reliability characteristics during the improvement phase to those of the steady service phase.
A modified version of Path Relinking is introduced to replace the local search in the improvement phase of Meta-RaPS (Meta-Heuristic for Randomized Priority Search) which is currently classified as a memoryless metaheuristic.
The implementation period was divided into quartiles, including baseline, education and four quality improvement phases.
This suggests that some of the main effects and their interactions were canceled out during the discovery and improvement phases.
The tested design factors affected the genetic merit of pre-bridging germplasm at the end of the discovery and improvement phases (Table 1).
The implementation period was divided into 3-month phases: baseline, education, and quality improvement phases 1 to 4. The Institution Review Board of the participating centers approved the study and waived the need for patient's written consent.
For each scenario genetic merit, accuracy of genomic prediction, kinship with the elite hybrid, and heterozygosity of germplasm were collected in different stages of the discovery and improvement phases.
