When we ask "who rules the world?" we commonly adopt the standard convention that the actors in world affairs are states, primarily the great powers, and we consider their decisions and the relations among them.
We describe a commonly adopted two-stage approach for real-valued sources, as for instance presented in ([5], Chap. 16).
For example, if we assume a commonly adopted additive model, the relative homozygote risk for a disease SNP is inherently assumed to be equal to the square of its relative heterozygote risk, which may not capture the actual genotype-phenotype relationships in real data.
We used the two most commonly adopted methods for calculation of disease duration in our study.
In this review, we first survey the most commonly adopted strategies in enhancer recognition and then discuss potential future directions.
Furthermore, to represent a protein conformation, we adopt one of the commonly adopted representation schemes, where a conformation is represented as a sequence of α-carbons (C α ) located in 3D space.
We followed the latter approach (setting ), which is commonly adopted in the literature (Guo et al., 2010; Pina et al., 2012).
Following imputation, we removed 19 individuals being outliers according to the commonly adopted six-standard deviation criterion in EIGENSTRAT (76).
We set out to analyze whether the current, most commonly adopted national and international selective screening practices are appropriate compared with universal screening using IADPSG criteria (11).
To validate our results, we compared them with the ones obtained using a more commonly adopted regression method, in particular the Local Gradient Method.
We relied on a self-labelling measure of workplace bullying, the most commonly adopted in epidemiological studies [ 48], which might have introduced information bias.
