Cupping of cusps is the most uncertain criterion because it can be an effect of abrasion as well as of erosion.
This means that decisions usually depend on combining two or more quite uncertain environmental criteria, and it is shown that this can be approached systematically if a fuzzy logic framework is adopted.
It is uncertain whether criteria such as 'smouldering myeloma' and light chain monitoring (Rajkumar, 2005) are applicable in Gaucher disease.
Except in cases of occlusal cupping in young individuals, it is suggested that the presence of occlusal cupping and incisal grooving are at best uncertain diagnostic criteria for erosive tooth wear, but that shallow defects on smooth surfaces coronal to the CEJ may be pathognomonic of erosive tooth wear.
Concrete cracking is a challenging and uncertain design criterion that significantly affects our ability to predict the serviceability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures.
In this paper, a Decision Support System (DSS) for generating a suitable portfolio for an investor in an uncertain multi-criteria framework is proposed.
In turn, those Web designers and the people who hire them say they are frustrated by the search engines, uncertain of the criteria that underlie the rankings and frustrated that their sites can be eliminated from a search engine's database without explanation and often without recourse.
We outline the full extent of the design challenge through a discussion of trade-offs among performance criteria, uncertain effects of design variables, and the many inter-linkages between the balancing market and the electricity market at large.
Whether neuron rescue alone can completely correct the disorder is uncertain because the criteria for a fully rescued or recovered state in mice is yet undetermined.
In fact, the wide number of situations considered as uncertain by the EPAGE criteria, was the reason for applying the new EPAGE-II criteria in our study [ 14].
