The laboratory determination of resilient modulus is quite involved, hence other methods of estimating its value from other soil properties that can be readily determined was explored.
This study has focused on ML estimation only, and it would be fruitful to extend the conclusions to other methods of estimating k, such as maximum quasi-likelihood [14], method-of-moments with small-sample correction [16], or bias-corrected ML [17].
Other methods of estimating parameter confidence limits include using the Jacobian and using Monte Carlo methods.
We have tried various other methods of estimating the reliability of quartets.
The low rate implies stronger constraints against change than are obtained by other methods of estimating the rate.
CEU has been shown to correlate with other methods of estimating insulin effects on the microcirculation [ 5].
Other methods of estimating HIV incidence include assessing changes in prevalence over time and use of laboratory tests that may detect recent HIV infections [ 13, 14].
Furthermore, as compared to the other methods of estimating roaming dog populations (questionnaires, paint marking, distance methods and exhaustive counts) the use of the sample of dogs marked as part of the intervention is resource efficient.
Recent studies 19, 20 have compared alternative strategies for guiding fluid input, including the use of oesophageal Doppler monitoring or other methods of estimating stroke volume variability, or by using more generic protocols for fluid management.
Although the models used to estimate PM in the NHS have been shown to have little bias and high precision, [ 37, 38] especially when compared with other methods of estimating air pollution [ 18, 19], some misclassification of the biologically relevant levels of individual exposure is inevitable and could have attenuated the association between air pollution and PD risk.
