Another strength is the use of a conservative threshold for nonadherence, avoiding inclusion of difficult behaviors that did not directly affect the patients’ health and adding to the clinical relevance and predictive power of our adherence variable. In addition, ascertainment of potentially problematic...
To explore the overall effect of the fixed effects, we used a likelihood ratio test comparing the full model with the reduced model without the fixed effects but including the control fixed effects and random effects74. We checked for multicollinearity using Variance Inflation Factors75. In both ...
Thus, the new method flexibly leads to less conservative results. Numerical examples verify the effectiveness and superiority of the new method and results. Notations: In the letter, RnRn represents the n-dimensional Euclidean space, Rn×mRn×m denotes the set of all n×mn×m-dimensional real ...
We study the motion of a test particle in a conservative force-field. Our aim is to find three-dimensional potentials with symmetrical properties, i.e., 𝑉(𝑥,𝑦,𝑧)=𝑃(𝑥,𝑦)+𝑄(𝑧)V(x,y,z)=P(x,y)+Q(z), or, 𝑉(𝑥,𝑦,𝑧)=𝑃(𝑥2+𝑦2)+𝑄(𝑧...
A fast linearized conservative finite element method for the strongly coupled nonlinear fractional Schrödinger equations. J. Comput. Phys. 2018, 358, 256–282. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] Zhao, X.; Hu, X.; Cai, W.; Karniadakis, G.E. Adaptive finite element method for fractional ...
We note that one may miss valid information on species that never occur on the ground with this conservative approach, but including species as 100% epiphytic would inevitably inflate our estimate of “epiphytes” in cases where authors simply found observations of occasional terrestrial occurrence of...
