His study then used advanced statistical analysis to gauge their relative importance.
Mr. Elop said Nokia was looking at "trajectories, the number of contracts and customer trends," among other statistical bellwethers, to gauge the prospects for Nokia Siemens.
"I don't want to push this too hard," said Mr. Fair, 68, a veteran marathoner who has also used statistical techniques to gauge the effects of aging on runners.
Using an array of catch and fish life-cycle data, they have devised a new statistical method to gauge the health of fish stocks, and applied it to over 7,000 fisheries.
We used mixed-effects statistical models to gauge the relative influences of environmental and subject-specific factors on benzene exposure and breath levels and to investigate the importance of various covariates obtained by questionnaire.
We compared baseline and exit proportions of expressed interest for each of the options mentioned above, using a population proportion test to gauge statistical significance (the population proportion test is a normal approximation of a binomial distribution).
The performance of individual statistical models was gauged by their overall R values (corresponding to variance explained by factors in the model), while the impact of individual factors was measured by the regression beta (adjusted mean beta difference, Δ β, and standard error, SE).
Although it is difficult to gauge the statistical power of this search for coding fRNAs because there are not many known coding fRNAs in yeast, there is promising evidence that our final set of predicted fRNAs has successfully recovered biologically relevant fRNA secondary structures.
We then performed a t-test to gauge the statistical significance of a linear association.
Following our recently proposed information PDC and information DTF [5], and their corresponding rigorous asymptotic statistics (see [3] and [4] for details), we first gauged their statistical performance against that of the well-established time-domain GCT test [2].
