Hamming distance [ 85] and edit distance, also called Levenshtein distance [ 86], are widely used for measuring the similarity of sequential tandem repeats [ 87 90].
Then, the translational motion errors in the horizontal and vertical directions were measured by the sequential two-point method, where influence of the angular motion errors on the translational measurement was compensated by utilizing the measured angular motion errors.
Severity of illness was measured using the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score and was calculated at the time of admission to the ICU [ 15].
Horizontal activity was measured by the sequential breaking of infrared beams, 2.54 cm on center, in the horizontal plane of the x axis.
The study - powered to evaluate the effect of APC on the change in organ dysfunction, measured using the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score as the primary outcome - failed to show any benefit.
In particular, a lack of organ failure resolution over a patient's stay is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, as commonly measured by the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score [ 4- 6].
Given the service time of each sequential stage, for example, measured in the sequential code, these equations can be also used to tune the optimal number of workers n for any new simulation problem and to understand its upper bound in term of speedup.
The severity of illness was assessed using the Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation II score [ 13], and the frequency and magnitude of organ dysfunction was measured with the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score [ 14], both determined within the first 24 hrs after enrollment of the patient.
The ESCs were subsequently cultured over eight sequential passages again measuring the resulting cell number, Oct-4-GFP expression level and cell viability.
Comparison of CORIG and the complexity values obtained with surrogates makes it possible to address the following surrogate null hypothesis: As assessed by this complexity measure, the sequential structure of the original message is indistinguishable from the sequential structure of an equi-probable, random sequence of the same length constructed from the same symbol alphabet.
