On the other hand, the pairwise distances between two samples are large or even huge mathematically, even if each sample is standardized as a zero-mean point with unit standard deviation.
We expressed model outputs as probability distributions summarized by a mean point estimate with 90% credible intervals (CrIs).
Our model outputs are in the form of probability distributions summarized by a mean point estimate with 90% credible intervals (CrIs).
An obsession with the mean point of the bell curve has sometimes led scientists to forget that the "average person" is a mathematical construct, corresponding to no actual human being.
The study revealed that the knowledge level about dementia among undergraduate nursing students was good, with a mean point of 10.26 out of a possible 12 points.
Examples of single-channel recordings are shown in Figure 2A and the mean point conductance obtained with each mutant at −60 mV is shown in Figure 2B.
LiDAR data were collected between October 2014 and 2015 in a series of 216 10× 2 km rectangular plots, with a mean point density of 2/m2.
One-way sensitivity analyses (run with the mean point estimates rather than the distributions of the input parameters) explored the impact of the uncertainty characterising the model input parameters on the main analysis: the intervention cost for supported employment and standard care was changed by ±40% to investigate whether the conclusions of the analysis would change.
This algorithm performs successfully with reliable mean point-to-surface errors 0.95 ± 0.91 mm on 40 volumes.
Participants with PTSD took significantly longer to retrieve autobiographical information during the assault hot spot than those without PTSD, F 1, 65) = 4.04, p =.049, but not during the worst moment of the negative event script, F 1, 65) = 1.79, p =.181, with means pointing in the opposite direction.
Each participant repeated the experiment ten times from each of four mean starting points with an associated small variance.
