He does not have a robust comparison of methods with every relevant Premier League club.
In 2001 the devolved government ditched school league tables; it has also replaced some standardised tests with teacher assessments, making robust comparison of schools impossible.
For a robust comparison between patches, the size of the patches increases when the noise level is high.
Variations in dosimetry techniques in mammography may prevent a robust comparison of breast dose in mammography between countries and between radiology departments [22, 23, 24].
The paper shows that top-down econometric techniques, combined with bottom-up engineering analysis produced a robust comparison between Network Rail and its peers.
Radiological scoring systems for pulmonary cystic fibrosis have been introduced to allow for a standardised and robust comparison of radiological scoring to clinical scoring and for comparison of outcomes within patient groups in different studies.
This decision was taken on the basis of feedback from several representatives at the 2015 Dagstuhl seminar in Computational Metabolomics [51], to allow a statistically more robust comparison of the methods.
The distractor tasks were presented at identical locations in each of the drives and an identical suite of driver performance and subjective rating measures were elicited to allow a robust comparison between the two simulator environments.
In the context of the Yemeni conflict, an assumption was made by the authors that in the absence of external support, utilisation of maternal newborn health services was unlikely to have increased between the collection of the Yemen NHDS data in the mid 2013 and 2014 when the programme data were collected and analysed, thereby providing a robust comparison point.
While avoiding the potential aggregation bias of subgroup analysis and allowing a more robust comparison of intervention characteristics, these trials are unfortunately limited by short follow-up periods and generally report only on risk factors or biological parameters, making it difficult to assess their impact on the long-term clinical outcomes observed in our analysis.
However, the small number of study subjects in this trial precludes a robust comparison on this point.
