Finally, apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements derived from DWI provide quantitative rule-out criteria for breast cancer.
The main purpose of this investigation is to study and calculate the adhesion strength more easily with quantitative rules in surface modification.
Qualitative and quantitative rules are proposed for selecting parameters that affect the accuracy of the proposed method, and are illustrated via numerical investigations.
The quantitative rules behind the tool, which represent the group view of the elicited community of experts, are defined during a period of quiescence, thus allowing prior scrutiny of any scientific input into the model, and minimizing the external stress on scientists during an actual emergency phase.
Tightening and loosening constraints on offsets in real time and in response to actual market conditions has been proposed previously in the context of a "carbon fed" [14], but markets may behave better in this case if clear, quantitative rules are written up front.
We evaluate some of the quantitative rules which affect food-flow, such as how the harvested quantity regulates food-flow in the nest or how food aggregation evolves in Formica fusca nests.
Computational mechanobiology studies the effect of mechanical stimuli in the differentiation, growth, adaptation, and maintenance of tissues, establishing qualitative and quantitative rules between the different variables involved in these processes.
However, the quantitative rules of STDP are profoundly influenced by neuromodulators (Seol et al., 2007; Pawlak et al., 2010), including dopamine (DA) (Zhang et al., 2009; Edelmann and Lessmann, 2011; Yang and Dani, 2014).
In view of the future adoption of strict quantitative rules [ 25], the easy conversion of routinely used, validated qPCR assays to ddPCR assays would allow the enforcement laboratories to precisely and absolutely quantify waterborne viruses without the need of calibrant.
However, these observations and their possible cause-effect relationships require further confirmation in a larger longitudinal study with more detailed epidemiological data collection to enable the development of quantitative rules to exclude random effects and to differentiate primary clusters from secondary re-occurrences in low-endemicity settings.
