Once the box widget is of the desired length, width, and orientation, the segment of interest (i.e., inside/outside the box) is removed.
Segmentation methods, based on local and global thresholding, were investigated and evaluated by a quantitative comparison of the architectural parameters they yielded, such as the fibre orientation and segment length (sections between joints) distributions and the number of inter-fibre crossings.
Possible reasons for this asymmetry include inhomogeneous distribution of the stimulus energy across the retina, inhomogeneous responsivity of the retina (due to cell density, photoreceptor orientation, outer segment length [ 21]), asymmetry in the conductivity or anatomy of the ocular tissues, or non-uniform effective gain applied to each electrode.
Having observed a clear preference of amphipathic segment orientation in the lipid bilayer environment, it was also pointed out to us that it would be desirable and interesting to look into residue contribution on this behavior.
Thus, investigation of the effects of segment orientation on segmental load estimation in this study is exploratory.
The method described in Triano and Schultz [ 50] and Triano et al. [ 51], however, does not consider the effect of lumbar segment orientation on segmental load.
The relative orientations of segments that comprise an anchor are also saved during the greedy anchor traversal.
The position and orientation of each segment was determined relative to the reference segments defined by the standing trial as the neutral position (0° rotation) using a least-squares fit of the corresponding marker point clouds [ 25].
This approach allowed the identification of gene segments in six possible reading frames, which also help to find gene segments located in the reverse orientation and D segments that may be used in multiple reading frames.
Moreover, the correlation between the segmental orientation of the hard segments and the thermodynamic and mechanical properties of the TPU samples is investigated.
