Moreover, the new method yields integer results whereas the analytical methods using linear programming usually produce impractical non-integer results.
To obtain integer results, the analytical methods need to solve the problem multiple times and screen the alternative solutions.
In the no argument case or if the highindex is 0, then the system selects an index which is the random 32 bit integer resulting from an mcell_ran4 call with an index equal to the the number of instances of the Random generator that had been created.
Rounding this quotient to its nearest integer resulted in 6 for the score weight of this variable.
This interval is used to linearly transform the data, and round to the nearest integer, resulting in the absolute copy number profile of each single cell [ 10].
The two component summaries from the SF-12, the MCS and PCS, were used in their continuous form and categorized according to the 25, 50, and 75 percentiles (rounded to nearest integer), resulting in four categories.
As the relaxed solution is always a lower bound (in the minimization case) of the integer solution, the result of the relaxed optimization can be used to prune branches from the combinatorial tree, which cannot contain the optimal solution.
There were also underflow problems because the images are stored as integers resulting in a loss of intensity resolution and color banding.
The non-integer results were treated on the basis of the cut-off CN >2 and CN ≤2 and they were rounded off, particularly, the values were rounded down if the decimal value was between 0 and 4; while they were rounded up if the decimal value was between 5 and 9.
If the power is an exact integer the result is the same as for pown, otherwise the result is as for powr (except for some exceptional cases).
As Twi is an integer, the result of Equation (9) is approximated (the decimal part is removed).
