The performance in successfully removing keypoints is evaluated by means of the keypoint removal rate (KRR) metric, which is defined as follows: KRR = 1 - Keypoints detected after attack Keypoints detected before attack × 100.
PCR duplicate read removal and sequence metric collection was performed using Picard [ 9] and SAMtools [ 10].
Removal of the 957 metric tons from the K West Basin, 400 yards from the Columbia River, is a milestone in Hanford's 60-year history, said the official, Dave Van Leuven, a vice president of Fluor Hanford, the Energy Department's contractor.
Irrespective of the removal rule or uniqueness metric, there was a fundamental difference among different taxa in the proportion of species considered to be unique to primary forest (Figure 2, and see [5]).
Arachnids, fruit-flies and fruit-feeding butterflies were either strongly affected by the removal rule, the uniqueness metric, or both, while other taxa were less sensitive (Figure 2) The removal of singletons had a greater effect on conservation value estimates than the sequential removal of doubletons, trebletons, etc (Figures 1 and 2).
Crews have completed the removal of more than 12 metric tons of weapons-grade plutonium from the Rocky Flats nuclear weapons site as part of a $7 billion cleanup effort that is expected to be finished in 2006, 12 years ahead of schedule.
While traditional metrics like mapping quality and Phred score can be applied, the fixed ends of GBS fragments confound the allelic balance metric and the removal of PCR duplicates by collapsing non-unique reads.
Any array failing on more than one metric was removed (Table 2) and in cases comprising A and B arrays, failure of one chip resulted in removal of data for that patient from analysis.
Measurements of gas production can serve as a complementary metric for assessing NAPL removal by providing a larger-scale measurement integrated over multiple smaller-scale NAPL locations.
Targeted removal of nodes according to degree metric is also called 'attack' [ 24].
