Seriation


Definition:

  • (n.) Arrangement or position in a series.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The cause of the hyperactivity was established after a thorough urological and neurological screening with intravenous urography, seriated mictional cystoureterography, cystoscopy, and urine culture.
  • (2) Techniques such as seriation can produce preliminary genetic maps that may be used as starting points for more computer-intensive maximum-likelihood multipoint techniques.
  • (3) The comparison between seriation and recognition of one nonseries over another revealed that performance on these two tasks was correlated and that one common feature between them was systematicity, which occurred either in searching for relationships or constructing them.
