The size-at-age maturation patterns were fit using mixed model generalized additive models, i.e. the GAMM procedure in R (mgcv-library, Wood and Augustin (2002), http://cran.r-project.org/).org/
Significantly these PDF measurements recorded with high spatial resolution, d = 0.29 Å, identified line shapes in the PDF pattern that could be fit using models having distortions in the coordination geometries at the domain edge, (2), or lattice defect sites, (3), and detected the presence of disordered Pi in the films (Du et al., 2012 ▸).
Data were then transformed to PDF patterns using PdfGetX3 [93], and fit using PDFGui [94].
As with state-level analyses, negative-binomial regression models were repeated in the same pattern as primary analyses; models were fit using PROC GENMOD in SAS.
The pattern of deaths over time was fitted using conditional Poisson regression models that included interactions of elapsed month with region, age-group, sex, deprivation group and population density (see Additional File 1: Appendix Table 4 for modification of covariates over time in study period).
Patterns in MD distributions were evaluated and fitted using a two-normal mixture model.
The efficiency of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by results, especially, when faced to the method presented in the recently published paper based on the block truncation coding using pattern fitting principle.
The structure texture phase stress combined analysis was performed based on the X-ray diffraction patterns using the whole pattern fitting method.
This pattern fits our results.
The tumor growth pattern is fitted by using the Gompertz curve, which shows slow change in the beginning and the end of tumor growth [ 31].
