We also apply Levinsohn and Petrin's approach [46] using intermediate inputs (expenses on materials which are subtracted out in our value-added production function) to address the simultaneity problem.
Addressing low manufacturing yields often requires a materials engineering perspective because in many cases the root causes of yield problems relate to the input materials or the influence of the other manufacturing process inputs on the materials features and materials properties of the product elements that make up the process output.
Since the theoretical approaches mentioned above have neither explicitly considered different levels of cognitive functions, nor incorporated direct comparisons between numerical and non-numerical linguistic material, hypotheses about the influence of cognitive processing levels and type of input material on the manifestation of numerical advantages cannot be derived from these theories.
Based on stakeholder input, intervention materials will be developed, and these materials will undergo feasibility testing in 2014 to: (1) assess the recruitment and training of CHWs to deliver the intervention; (2) assess the content and appropriateness of the intervention components and material; and (3) obtain qualitative process evaluations from observers, CHWs and adolescent females.
The CAB gave valuable input on the consent processes and materials, recruitment strategies and suggested ways of minimizing the potential for stigma and discrimination.
On the same input data materials, we implemented the algorithm using STEP and LASSO separately, and got two different combinatorial regulation networks.
GG, BW, and MP conceived the study, US-S and BW provided material and input on the manuscript, MS, MF, and JS performed the bioinformatics.
In this case, researchers from the University of Michigan-Flint and the Children's Hospital of Michigan solicited input on the characteristics of the harmful materials kept in/around people's homes which might pose risks to young children.
Victor Nizet, Andrew Hollands and Maria Allhorn provided material and valuable input on the text.
During early development in the Efficacy trial, usability tests were performed with 30 patients to solicit input on content, layout, and comprehension of material.
