And while economists said that the error, one-tenth of a percentage point, was not large enough to significantly alter their view of the nation's economic performance, it was nonetheless in the direction of faster inflation.
Therefore, it was likely that subjects' performance at indicating the direction of motion in the uncued diagonal in the visibility test would overestimate their level of awareness of the motion in that diagonal during the main part of the experiment.
The associate dean wrote Your Money Or Your Life, in which he advocated a modest idea: that a small percentage of Medicare payments should be based on performance, thereby pushing the system in the direction of better value.
Whereas the SLI-only group shows similar performances in the two components (with a non-significant trend in the direction of better performance in phonological skills), the dyslexia-only group clearly fare better on the phonological representation component [as confirmed by a paired-samples t-test: t(20) = 4.99, P < 0.001].
By bringing out new dimensions in Mackey, Mr. Anderson's performance radically changed the direction of the series.
All three give painting a nudge in the direction of performance and "collective agitating," in the words of the show's curator, Lauren Cornell (the executive director of Rhizome, an organization dedicated to new-media art, and an adjunct curator at the New Museum).
The simplest implementation of back-propagation learning updates the network weights and biases in the direction of performance function decreasing.
Mr. Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony won a 1999 Grammy Award for their RCA Victor recording of "Oiseau de Feu," "Le Sacre" and "Perséphone," and those performances seemed to indicate a move in the direction of Bernstein.
We propose a criterion for optimal experiment design which provides a minimization of parameter uncertainty in the direction of improved performance of the process under robust economic NMPC.
Nevertheless, in contrast to our findings the trend was in the direction of improved performance with more opportunity to practice.
