These include a few "problematic areas," as today's Federal Register notice puts it, including improving performance measurements for wildland fire and endangered species conservation, as well as measuring the effectiveness of research.
With this technique, a single oligonucleotide is designed in two segments that flank, but do not include, a short region of problematic DNA sequence.
HSR review is a process borne out of the fact that the original law that prohibits anticompetitive mergers (the Clayton Act of 1914) failed to include a mechanism for detecting problematic transactions before they took place.
We applied our network approach to invasions by Poaceae, a family known to include a large number of problematic aliens (Maillet and Lopez-Garcia 2000), some of them among the first invasive plants studied in an evolutionary perspective (Rice and Mack 1991).
An automated approach to performing such an expansion starting with a seed and adding interaction data has recently been described [ 58] and could presumably be extended to include a filter for particularly problematic bypass edges (ligands acting without receptors for example).
And that, of course, is despite continued concerns that the fervour to extract more oil will lead to serious environmental problems - including, ultimately, a problematic contribution to climate change once those hydrocarbons are burned as fuel and emissions released.
We also began assembling our first digital processing workstation – a dual booting BitCurator and Windows 7 laptop connected to various external drives, including a Kryoflux for imaging problematic floppy disks.
While adding higher-order interaction terms to the logistic regression model may bring it closer to the decision tree model, choosing which interactions to include is problematic, requiring a selection strategy and leading to a decrease in parsimony.
We start with the pregnancy and work forward through the two getting to know each other, their problematic families (including a delightfully wicked Carrie Fisher as Rob's mother) and their problematic friends.
Hybrid BRBF systems are shown to have a significant improvement over standard BRBF systems in terms of various damage measures including a significant reduction in the problematic residual displacements of the standard BRBFs.
