  • (20) The method is based on taking the geometric mean of two Hermitian symmetric data points before Fourier transformation.

Mensuration


Definition:

  • (n.) The act, process, or art, of measuring.
  • (n.) That branch of applied geometry which gives rules for finding the length of lines, the areas of surfaces, or the volumes of solids, from certain simple data of lines and angles.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Two systems of mensuration are utilized in 58 case studies.
  • (2) While the calvaria shares some anatomical features with Asian Homo erectus specimens, it exhibits a broader suite of morphological and mensural characteristics suggesting affinities with early Homo sapiens fossils from Asia, Europe, and Africa as well as demonstrating that the Narmada calvaria possesses some unique anatomical features, perhaps because the specimen reflects the incoherent classificatory condition of the genus Homo.
  • (3) The results are reported of 38 ultrasonographic in vivo mensurations of intraindividual differences in axial thickness between a cataractous lens in one eye and a biomicroscopically clear or slightly cataractous lens (incipient deep cortical opacity) in the other.
  • (4) We have obtained high-resolution magnetic resonance brain images of first-episode schizophrenic and normal control subjects and, with a computerized mensuration system, determined the volumes of the different components of the entire ventricular system.

  • (6) Mensural values of blood stream stages and cross-transmission studies defined the trypanosome species from mule deer, Odocoileus hemionus, as con-specific with Trypanosoma cervi, the trypanosome found in elk from the same locality.
  • (7) The embryos shared in common: holoprosencephaly, arhinencephaly sensu stricto (absence of olfactory nerve fibers, bulbs, and tracts), presence of a proboscis, synophthalmia with two lens vesicles, a retarded telencephalic wall, absence of the mediobasal part of the telencephalon (the future septal area and the commissural plate: future anterior commissure and corpus callosum), irregularity of the diencephalon, mensural changes in the brain, absence of the rostral part of the notochord and consequent cranial defects, and small ganglia of the cranial nerves.
