Optimization was achieved by minimizing the sum-of-square (SS) merit function using the Solver module of an Excel spreadsheet (Microsoft).
The crystal configuration was then optimized using two objective functions: the weighted-sum and the figure-of-merit methods.
Our figure of merit was the sum of the sigmoidally filtered binding site affinity density scores for convolution windows that overlap the flybase annotated gene or the region 1 kb to either side of the annotation.
Each case is modelled and analyzed using the per-cell ergodic sum-rate throughput as a figure of merit.
These latter minimize predefined figures of merit relying on the sum of squared errors.
To facilitate comparisons, the figure of merit α is defined as the F -weighted sum of η over all pairs of equivalents for all reflections, normalized so that it should be unity for random phases.
The simulation results prove the model importance with a figure of merit greater than 50%, what means the amount of correctly predicted change is larger than the sum of any type of error.
The considered figure of merit is the average per user achievable throughput, namely the sum throughput for all beams divided by the number of users.
The figure of merit analyzed and compared throughout this paper is the ergodic per-cell sum-rate throughput.a.a
Summing up, the judge said it was not relevant the trial had been held in a language he didn't understand and the fact that he had never been in possession of the drugs was "devoid of merit".
