For comparisons reasons with a recent study [16], we added an additonal breakpoint at 4 y, and found that the proportion of increased variance as a function of the status score at the end of the period for the age intervals 2 4 y and 4 6 y are respectively 0.05 and 0.04 by adding the status score at the start of the period to the model.
In this sense, robust sequences will tend to have low (strongly negative) values of D. By contrast, sequences under strong structural constraints will tend to have increased variance, as even single nucleotide mutations may bring about notable changes in the structural profile, and their robustness will therefore be decreased.
We assumed that SMUP variance would increase with increasing force, as larger units are sequentially activated with increasing variance, and modeled variance as a power function in relationship to the percent of effort [ 33].
The observational error is also clear (as the lines are not smooth), as is the increasing variance for higher ages in the mortality data, particularly in the early part of the century.
This form of interpolation is accomplished by fitting empirical models (known as semivariograms) to describe increasing variance between pairs of data points as a function of the distance separating them.
In egalitarian groups, the beneficial effect of grouping on the reproductive success increases with increasing variance of the individual foraging success as illustrated by the comparison of Figs. 2a and 2c.
The distribution of positive health expenditures (and length of stay) exhibit skew, kurtosis and heteroscedasticity, with a non-constant and increasing variance, albeit particular cost problems, such as the accommodation of a probability mass at "zero", may not have immediate relevance to length of stay analysis [ 51, 69].
Wade and Stevens showed that increasing this variance, as would happen because of drift or if infection appeared in a subset of the groups, raised the invasion threshold and reduced the per-generation change in average infection frequency across groups.
The individual reaction of the test animals to being held is again likely to increase variance, especially as both individual rodents and individual experimenters may behave differently.
The results are studied for different values of the number of diversity branches L and receiver antennas separation δ R. It is observed that for MRC, an increase in the spatial correlation increases the variance as well as the LCR of the channel capacity; however, the ADF of the channel capacity decreases.
