For one thing, we are too complex: our behavior depends on an enormous number of tightly interconnected variables that are extraordinarily difficult to distinguish and study separately.
PCA is a data testing tool that generally condenses the dimensionality of a large number of interconnected variables (Grahn et al. 1989; Mujica et al. 2008; Wang and Cui 2005).
To clarify the roles of these interconnected variables, we compared the diversity of threatened and common herbivorous insects and plants among four land-use types (traditional, annual burning, annual mowing, and abandoned) during 2012 and 2013.
PARADIGM models functional structure of pathway as a set of interconnected variables where variables are omics objects like DNA, mRNA, and protein.
A gene is modeled by a factor graph as a set of interconnected variables encoding the expression and known activity of a gene and its products, allowing the incorporation of many types of omic data as evidence.
The principle is to describe an environmental health risk situation in a formal manner utilising system diagrams with causal connections of actions, outcomes, and interconnected variables (for causal diagrams, see [ 16]).
The monotonic dependence of Ca2+ current on transmembrane potential, and simultaneous Ca2+-dependent inhibition of Ca2+ channels, represents a classical problem of two interconnected variables: intraciliary Ca2+ and membrane potential.
The method models the functional structure of pathway as a set of interconnected variables, where the variables are omic objects such as DNA, mRNA and protein, where the interaction between variables describes the functional status of a pathway.
