To figure out why some choose to work overtime even when they know it's not good for health, the researchers turned to a mathematical analysis called Becker's Theory of the Allocation of Time, which helps to measure the cost of time.
"Also, we found that workaholism was associated with reduced mental well-being as measured by a self-reported depression score". To figure out why some choose to work overtime even when they know it's not good for health, the researchers turned to a mathematical analysis called Becker's Theory of the Allocation of Time, which helps to measure the cost of time.
The data from these experiments were quantified using a specific type of statistical analysis called 'reverse correlation' and used to build mathematical models that predict navigational behavior.
Although his students disliked the new approach, and Cauchy was ordered to teach material that the students could actually understand and use, his methods gradually became established and refined to form the core of the modern rigorous calculus, a subject now called mathematical analysis.
My work at the Lab revolves around the topic of bioacoustics, and specifically the mathematical analysis of nocturnal flight calls.
Dean Hamer, a behavioral geneticist at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Maryland, who pioneered the search for gay genes, calls the study "an elegant mathematical analysis".
Cortical core: Scientists used a new type of brain imaging called diffusion spectrum imaging, along with mathematical analysis, to build a map of the cortical architecture of the human brain, shown here.
His work also established the basis for his work on infinite-dimensional space, later called Hilbert space, a concept that is useful in mathematical analysis and quantum mechanics.
Through those observations and accompanying mathematical analysis, they say they've cracked the mystery and exposed what Bush calls the "bizarre and subtle mechanism" underlying the pulsing.
To untangle such a massive and uneven database, Kirchner used a specialized form of a mathematical technique called spectral analysis, which was developed by astrophysicists to make sense of the complex light signals received from distant stars.
Massey is a leader in the field of queueing theory, which is the mathematical analysis of systems involving customers waiting for services or resources, such as call centers.
