Those achievements rest on the ability to develop rigorous chains of inferences that take us from readily detectable aspects of the world to reliable conclusions about more remote matters.
Nominally directed by Frank Urson, though said to be largely the work of its producer, Cecil B. DeMille, it's a film in which each small detail (the brand of a pocket watch, for example) seems to contribute to the unfolding of the plot, and every scene has its place in a rigorous, unbroken chain of cause and effect.
The PEPFAR ToC was the key to high-quality, rigorous causal chain analysis that provided a solid evidence base for the evaluation's conclusions and recommendations.
Here, we provide a rigorous treatment of chain-end scission using a continuous distribution for the polymer population and show that the method of moments has shortcomings for general use.
He believed in rigorous data and clear chains of command.
These formulae are assembled into chains, in accordance with rigorous logical rules (i.e. through logical inferences), to represent chains of biological reactions, so that the latter are treated as logical deductions.
The application process is rigorous, Lin said, running through a chain from an interview, to a background check, and a one-on-one interview with other successful Envoys.
Such evidence, pieced together carefully and supported with the intuition of experienced researchers, can help guide nutrition-sensitive agriculture price policy design while a rigorous evidence base encompassing the causal chain is built up.
However, during elongation of polyQ amyloid, the alignment constraints on incoming polypeptide chains are much less rigorous because of the repetitive and degenerate nature of the primary sequence.
A rigorous demonstration, for Leibniz, consists in a "chain of definitions" (catena definitionum) where one moves from premises to a conclusion via the substitution of definitionally equivalent terms (A II.i.398; L:198).
