82 The drawback to this technique is that it is relatively time-consuming and requires a sophisticated BioPlex Array reader capable of measuring the difference between different fluorescent tags used.
SF is determined by measuring the difference between two threshold measurements at 10 different points across the entire field during the same test.
By measuring the difference between 0th-order and 1st-order diffraction efficiencies, the measurement sensitivity is improved, while common mode laser source noise is eliminated.
Food intake was calculated by providing measured amounts of food in the food hopper every two weeks and measuring the difference between original food weight and the weight of food remaining.
This is as good a way as any, I suppose, of measuring the difference between real imagination and mere phant'sy.
That yields a margin of error, in measuring the difference between the candidates, of about 1.5 percentage point — smaller than Mr. Obama's current lead in the polling average there.
The margin of sampling error on a 12,000-person sample is larger than you might think: about plus or minus 2 percentage points in measuring the difference between the two major candidates.
Economists calculate this by measuring the difference between the rate charged on loans and a "reference rate", which is pretty much the risk-free rate.The consequence of this approach is that when interest margins rise for corporate borrowers, as they did in late 2008, the gross value-added of the banking sector appears to go up.
In measuring the difference between the actual popular vote margin between the Democratic and Republican candidates and the one implied by the poll, likely voter polls were more accurate in 1992 , 1996 2004 and 2008, while registered voter polls were a bit better in 1988 and 2000.
The result of the t-test measuring the difference between them is statistically significant (p = 0.0207).
KL divergence is widely used for measuring the difference between two probability distributions [29].
