We use it merely to approximate the expected number of iterations (14) for a given data set in experiments in "Experiments" section.
The larvae's chemical signal merely approximates the bee pheromone, so it only manages to deceive a small subset of the population.
For the same reason, it needs to be distinguished from 'similarity' — the concept of merely approximate correspondence (Dann 1975, p. 997; Menne 1962, p. 44 ff.; Westen 1990, pp. 39, 120).
In [16], it has been showed that the SAM cost function is merely approximated by the sum-squared autocorrelation of the TEQ output sequence: J SAM ≈ ∑ l = P + 1 L c | R y ~ y ~ ( l ) | 2. (15).
1, 2 Despite many advantages (eg, large size and unselected sample), 3 registry data merely approximate the true medication intake, reflecting neither its fact nor the timing.
There was still something otherworldly about the dancers, as though they were observers here, and were merely approximating human behavior.
Even these words seem to be merely approximate labels for them: a Mundurukú who is shown three objects will sometimes say there are three, sometimes four.
I watched in wonder as Elmer flew to and from his perch with an elegant efficiency that even the most sophisticated aircraft can merely approximate.
The outcomes clearly highlight that none of the existing devices can mimic the typical stress histories of the different alignments, merely approximating more or less some of these.
If a director purchases sufficient quantities of papier-mâché to suggest the settings specified in the libretto, and if singers and orchestral players merely approximate the notes in the score, you are assured of a passable evening's entertainment.
However, a conclusive refutation has remained elusive, principally since none of the attempts to date have unambiguously avoided the critique that they have altered the properties of (M,R) in the coding process, producing merely approximate simulations of (M,R) rather than true computational models.
