The increased use reinforced the transnational culture, especially as it introduced Western/European modalities and assumptions through interfaces, acronyms and assumptions about data handling and use.
A single modality is a reasonable assumption as long as the channel bandwidth is large, and therefore the channel estimated at chip time includes only rays impinging from a narrow solid angle.
On this way of thinking, we are entitled to a default 'recombinability' assumption about modality: that for any pair of properties F and G, it is possible that there is an x that is both F and G, that x is only one and not the other, and that there is an x that is neither F nor G.
The choice between specific screening modalities was sensitive to assumptions about their relative costs, test performance, and ability to be delivered within one or two visits.
Most trauma centers that use FAST as a primary screening modality rely on the assumption that any missed injuries are low-grade lesions without serious clinical consequence [ 24, 25].
Published online: December 4, 2008 The anatomical and physiological similarity of first-order thalamic nuclei in different sensory modalities has led to the assumption that they perform general functions in the processing of sensory information [7 11].
By introducing a multiplicity of distinct modalities and then imposing various assumptions governing the inter-relationships between these modalities, one would essentially end up with a reformulation of the language of Justification Logic itself (with distinct terms replaced by distinct modalities).
Our findings in visual modality-specific cortex support this assumption, probably reflecting down-regulating frontal control via middle temporal regions.
The underlying assumption of the "modality appropriateness hypothesis" is that auditory temporal resolution is more precise than that of the visual modality.
For both these modalities we have made certain assumptions.
