Stimulus duration, from its start to the moment of pushing the reaction button, was maximally about 4 s (time between start from 32°C to reaching a maximal threshold of about 28 or 36°C for cold respectively warmth).
The method chooses the maximal threshold value between Ismail's and Cond M i n S a d,S i m to combine two algorithms together.
The deleterious effect of voluntary running on trabecular structural characteristics indicates that there may be a maximal threshold of running beyond which beneficial effects cease and detrimental effects occur.
ThI was defined as follows: ThI = (c max − c thr)/c max, where c max is the maximal threshold value for obtaining at least one, two voxel sized, uptake focus; c thr is the voxel threshold value.
Therefore, if the maximal threshold r k of a progressive sharing, [(r 1&r 2&…&r k ); n], is equal to the single threshold t of non-progressive sharing, then both progressive scheme and non-progressive scheme can recover the original data without errors if t shares are received.
Power allocation problem is formulated to a minimization under the conditions that a minimal speed bound is set for secondary user's data transmission and a maximal threshold is set to restrict the average interference power caused by secondary user to main user.
We also introduce a sparsity parameter ι (ι > 0), which controls the sparsity of S. If ι is set at 0.8, 20% of the J × I elements in S are selected randomly and set to zeros at first, and then the nonzero elements in each column vector of S are generated following the Dirichlet pdf with the STU constraint and the maximal threshold ξ.
If Pplat exceeded the maximal threshold, V T could be lowered until Pplat was less than 30 cmH2O; to counterbalance the effect of V T reduction on alveolar ventilation, the respiratory rate was increased to the highest rate that did not induce intrinsic PEEP [15].
The computing time has now been drastically reduced, as mentioned in Section 3. In this case, random numbers with uniform distribution between the minimal and maximal threshold values are selected for T H, T S, and T C, and the results for Q hsc are compared.
The clusters are pruned based on a minimal and maximal threshold of 2 and 100, respectively.
Also, a maximal threshold value of 30 cmH2O for the plateau pressure is currently recommended, although 35 could could be acceptable in patients exhibiting very low chest wall compliance [ 6].
