To more accurately quantify the predictability of water availability, on the basis of univariate probabilistic Budyko framework, a bivariate probabilistic Budyko approach was developed using copula-based joint distribution model for considering the dependence between parameter ω of Wang-Tang's equation and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and was applied globally.
Our method features a novel metric, namely unpredictability index (UPI), to capture repeating patterns by quantifying the predictability of packet arrivals' temporal structure from the perspective of hierarchical clustering.
To identify which spacing parameters define the optimal predictor, we varied both spacings simultaneously, and quantified their predictability by averaging the expression change of their 30 highest ranking genes.
The method of analysis used for quantifying the predictability of the different glucose solutions was partial least squares regression (PLSR), more specifically the SIMPLS algorithm for PLSR [ 19] built into MATLAB.
Under a reasonable foreseeability test, it would be necessary to quantify the degree of predictability that must be reached before the police-created exigency doctrine comes into play.
Microbial evolution experiments enable us to watch adaptation in real time, and to quantify the repeatability and predictability of evolution by comparing identical replicate populations.
The concept of "heritability" was introduced "to quantify the level of predictability of passage of a biologically interesting phenotype from parent to offspring" (Feldman, 151).
We now quantify, using simulations, how predictability varies with the number of segregating mutations in the sample.
The idea, essentially, was to quantify information in terms of predictability.
This suggests that other factors such as inaccuracy in information from questionnaires and variability in the analytic methods used to quantify POPs might affect model predictability.
