Previous studies have provided an effective mechanism for accurately estimating soil moisture by building a global estimation model that comprehensively integrates multiple factors at a local scale.
This study proposes a "pyramid" framework that integrates multiple factors from different sources using the classification and regression tree (CART) algorithm, a machine learning method, to estimate soil moisture at a high spatial resolution (1 km).
The proposed strategy by Li et al, [ 36] using a generalized genetical genomics approach, integrates multiple factors (environment, tissue type) into the experimental design but does not necessarily reduce the number of samples that need to be processed.
Since EBP involves complex knowledge and skills that take time to develop, it follows that EBP education should integrate multiple factors, comprise multiple layers of teaching and evaluation, and allow students time to develop their thinking and decision making skills.
Reliable diagnostic, therapy, and prevention strategies therefore need to integrate multiple factors that influence disease, whether of internal origin (for example, genetic predisposition, presence of biomarkers, or spatiotemporal dynamics) or external origin (for example, lifestyle, age, or fitness).
A particularly useful means of classification is by primary source of livelihood, since it is easy to apply and integrates the multiple factors underlying food insecurity.
Unraveling the complexities of cell responses to different combinations of exercise stimuli, or integrating the multiple factors involved in optimizing human performance at the whole body level, will require new tools that move us away from traditional "linear thinking" and towards "multidimensional networking", for lack of a better term.
So could brain gene synchrony also integrate the multiple factors engaged in neuropsychiatric disorders and reveal underlying pathologies?
An ecological framework offers a broad perspective of health promotion and integrates multiple levels of factors that influence health intra- and interpersonal, community/institutional, and macro level/public policy [ 8].
Further research needs to integrate multiple psychosocial factors in order to explain health-related quality of life in multimorbid patients.
Jactel and colleagues (2012), for instance, used multicriteria analysis techniques to integrate multiple risk factors in the context of managing natural disturbances and invasive species in forest ecosystems.
