Farmers were asked to rank the importance of four given objectives (objectives listed in the methods section) from 'Very Important' to 'Very Unimportant'; in addition supplementary objectives, where they wished to provide further detail, were recorded.
Additional PD diagnoses may be detected in PLWHA in CJS using supplementary and objective screening tools.
Of supplementary terms target, goal, and objective occurred very frequently (in approximately 40 60% of all publications), implying that the target-oriented model of specifying objectives and trying to satisfy them efficiently has been widely adopted (Nicholson & Possingham, 2006; Carwardine et al., 2009; Moilanen & Arponen, 2011).
Besides, a supplementary cost reduction objective function was also derived as cost is a critical barrier against safety improvement.
GNSS augmentation can take many forms but all strategies share the same fundamental principle of providing supplementary information whose objective is improving the performance and/or trustworthiness of the system.
A total of 14 studies met the inclusion criteria for the first objective (Supplementary Table 1).
The thioflavin-S staining protocol we used for these studies is sensitive to all senile plaque types (e.g. diffuse, cored, and neuritic) (Dickson et al., 1992), which were each included with a truncated maximum of 50 plaques per 3 mm using a ×10 objective (Supplementary Fig. 1).
To collect in-depth qualitative data from Symposium attendees, we conducted 10-min semi-structured interviews with question prompts addressing each of the five Symposium objectives (see Supplementary File 2).
The objective function (see Supplementary Methods) was minimized each day using the MATLAB (The Mathworks) genetic algorithm function ga.
This is equivalent to minimizing the following objective function (see Supplementary Material for a detailed derivation of a MAP estimator), which is a sum of squared errors with quadratic regularization terms: (2) where λ U = σ G 2 / σ U 2, λ V = σ G 2 / σ V 2 and λ Ψ = σ G 2 / σ Ψ 2. Because Ψ, U and V are unknown, the function L is not convex.
