One way of measuring the spread of al-Qaeda-type groups is to look at suicide bombings over the last week.
The standard deviation (SD) is measure of inconstancy, measuring the spread of the data and the relationship of the mean to rest of the data.
In many NR methods of estimating the impact of blur on visual quality, the computations begin with measuring the spread of pixels present on the edges in an image.
Measuring the spread of lipids on water was done using a Langmuir's trough.
Measuring the spread of a set of trees is a useful tool not only to quantify the posterior uncertainty.
We estimated the widths of the voxel frequency tuning curves by measuring the spread around their centroids (see Materials and Methods; Supplementary Fig. 1 A ).
We tried locating the locus (ratio) of unstained nuclei, and measuring the spread about this locus, to set a boundary independently for every image (tissue core).
The parameter ζ can be estimated by randomly resampling the relation using the obtained weights and measuring the spread around the trend in the data in the direction (Fig. 2C illustrates this schematically).
Thus, θ0 measures the spread of the beam.
The first method uses computer image analysis of satellite photos and data to measure the spread and thickness of oil on the ocean surface.
