Normalization: Global mean miRNA expression was defined as the sample-wise arithmetic mean Cq of all included miRNA measurements.
The RL deconvolution iterations consist only of convolutions and pixel-wise arithmetic operations and could therefore be significantly accelerated using dedicated hardware such as a graphics processing unit (GPU).
The other primary computational requirement of multislice calculations is large element-wise matrix arithmetic, which GPUs are very well-suited to perform [43].
Diversity values of gene fragments showing no sequence overlap were calculated fragment-wise and then the arithmetic average was computed.
Safety is assessed by pair-wise comparisons of the arithmetic mean (±SD) change in haemoglobin concentration per treatment arm and analysed for superiority to placebo and incidence of adverse events.
IS 6110-RFLP patterns were analyzed as fingerprint types and the pair wise distance between patterns was computed using unweighted pair-group method using arithmetic averages (UPGMA) and the Jaccard index [ 9].
Unlike pair-wise potentials, the Tersoff potential involves three-body terms, which require much more arithmetic operations and data dependency.
The equivalent sound level (LEq) is computed as the arithmetic mean (converted to decibels (dB) after averaging) of the frame-wise root mean-square (RMS) energy (μ rmsE ).
The arithmetic symbols (+, -, *, and /) operate on a point-wise basis; that is, values are added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided at each point of time.
To determine the genetic relatedness of NTM strains in this study, dendrograms were constructed using the pair wise distance and the Jaccard index between fingerprint patterns by the un-weighted pair-group method of arithmetic averages (UPGMA) for the different species at a tolerance level of 2%.
The resulting dynamic gain of the 8×8 kernels is therefore relatively higher, which imposes an intermediate rescaling after the row-wise 1-D transform stage, in order to make its computation possible with 16-bit integer arithmetic.
