Even though the correlation matrices are always symmetric, hence in practice requiring the computation only of half of their entries, the computational overhead for such a procedure is of complexity O ( N 2 ).
The continuous improvement of full-field measurement techniques has fostered the development of mechanical testing procedures of increasing complexity.
The proposed methodology is applied for quantifying the fragility of a typical highway overpass at both the component and system level, while the effect of alternative procedures (of varying complexity) for modelling foundation and abutment boundary conditions is critically assessed.
Patients undergoing elective procedures of low complexity, such as routine biopsies, venous catheters or drainages, are receiving telephone consultation.
The panel was asked the same question, but the hypothetical procedures were expanded to include three surgical procedures of differing complexity: cataract extraction, cholecystectomy and hip replacement.
Metal-on-metal hip resurfacing was developed for young and active patients who were likely to have several hip replacement procedures of increasing complexity during their lifetimes.
Orthognathic surgery, which includes several procedures of varying complexity requiring high surgical skill, demands that surgeons consider multiple variables, such as the patient's overall physical condition, operating time, intraoperative hemorrhage, postoperative pain, and potential postoperative sequelae and complications.
This implies that approaches to the appointment of a patient's legal representative may differ across member states depending on the legal, cultural and political background of each European country, giving rise to procedures of differing complexity that may affect biomedical research.
To evaluate our sample population, we selected two procedures with different levels of complexity: a simpler procedure with 3 entry points, 2 of which were symmetrical [ 3], and a more complex procedure with 4 entry points, none of which were symmetrical [ 7].
Figure 5 shows the procedure of our low-complexity ML detector.
