There might be all kinds of irrelevant differences between a given kind of machine and a human being not all of them rendered undetectable by the experimental set-up that Turing describes but The Turing Test will remain a good test provided that it is able to ignore these irrelevant differences.
To minimize irrelevant differences between subjects visual search abilities, a normalization was applied by subtracting from their hit rate in each region condition (phosphene and control regions) the average of the hit rates on both conditions.
DIF should be considered an item bias compromising estimation of the person ability only if the difference in the item parameters can be explained by a meaningful, construct-irrelevant difference between subgroups.
The large difference between AR conditions in Experiment 1 may produce a large but irrelevant difference in the EEG, which might contaminate the surrogate series.
Remindings may allow us to compare sequentially distant instances of a category in order to distinguish critical commonalities from irrelevant differences, generalize across events, and contrast between examples (Benjamin & Tullis, 2010).
Above all, though, if you must complain about something as irrelevant as differences between books and screen adaptations, can you at least do it in private?
Thus, standard morphometrics are not directly applicable to such problems because such techniques can become trapped in a focus on many small, often irrelevant quantitative differences between morphologies that obscures their overall anatomical similarity, and because they are not suited to comparison of very different shapes that result from changes in the anatomical identity of body regions.
However, when orientation was the irrelevant feature (Figure 8C), planned contrast showed that there was no difference between irrelevant change and no change, F 1,15) = 0.
Planned contrast showed that there was no difference between irrelevant change and no change, F 1,15)<1, suggesting no N270 was elicited in the irrelevant change of orientation condition.
Planned contrast showed that there was no difference between irrelevant change and no change, F 1,11) = 0.061, p = 0.809, indicating that the irrelevant orientation change did not evoke N270.
Planned contrast showed that there was no difference between irrelevant change and no change, F 1,13) = 0.191, p = 0.670, suggesting that the irrelevant orientation change did not elicit N270.
