Appearance distinctness between an object and its surroundings.
It was now, as the rest of our garments followed, that Evie began to exhibit an increasing perturbation as though whatever was happening before her eyes was having, upon the confidence she had hitherto shown in the distinctness of our identities, a confusing effect.
But this appearance of distinctness may be explainable.
On his account, the identity sign disappears in a full analysis of language, wherein sameness and distinction are shown by sameness and distinctness of names, no two of which refer, in fully analysed language, to the same object (this view gives grounds for interpreting mathematical utterances in the Tractatus as unsinnig).
For, the Nonnegativity of EQI Theorem shows that the empirical distinctness of two hypotheses on a single possible outcome suffices to make the average EQI positive for the whole sequence of experiments.
Yet, the notion of distinctness is shown in the present paper to remain conceptually ambiguous at least with respect to the diversity within the "distinct" communities.
This has led Google to lose some market share, but it has shown the importance and distinctness of Google.
For both latitude and depth, the two taxonomic distinctness measures showed patterns that differed from more traditional diversity measures, specifically species richness and evenness, for the same fish assemblage.
Language relativity does not imply that the distinctness of distinct objects cannot go unnoticed.
In fact, the more finely one partitions the outcome space Ok = {ok1,…,okv,…,okw} into distinct outcomes that differ on likelihood ratio values, the larger EQI becomes.[20] This shows that EQI tracks empirical distinctness in a precise way.
Research has long shown that cultural values are deeply rooted and that immigrants to the U.S. show a degree of cultural distinctness over several generations.
