It assumes a constant but unknown mean, which allows construction of an unbiased estimator that does not require prior knowledge of the stationary mean of the observed values [ 23].
The latter include the SD, range (ie, minimum and maximum scores), the highest score possible for each measure, the ratio of the SD to the mean (which allows comparison of relative variability across measures), and the skewness of the distribution.
We also define a law between means which allows us to obtain, among others, a simple relationship involving the three familiar means, namely the first Seiffert mean, the second Seiffert mean, and the Neuman-Sándor mean.
In a conservative approach, the random-effect estimates of mean differences, which allow for variation of true effects across studies, were taken as 'main results'.
Tax-effective giving means using schemes which allow the charity to reclaim the basic rate tax on your gift.
Natural convective heat transfer is quantified by means of correlations which allow calculation of the average convective heat transfer coefficient in each area of the assembly and for all the treated configurations.
"The informed consent process would be perceived as a means and strategy which allow a volunteer to be an active participant and to participate in the best way possible".
The switching speed control is added to a typical charge pump circuit by mean of enable switches which allow drive different currents.
Richardson et al. [ 52] used geometric mean squares, which allows for the error in both the source and target instrument and ensures that models are logically coherent [ 19].
The minimization procedure is efficiently performed by means of genetic algorithms, which allow to compute both the collapse load factor and the correspondent failure mode with great accuracy and in a very short computing time.
