Example Sentences:
(1) An overdetermined set of Yule-Walker equations was created to determine the autoregressive (AR) parameters of the original data with the model order established by the singular value decomposition.
(2) Kappa values and their 95% confidence intervals, and Yule's Y values are reported.
(3) The statistical method here employed, which permitted the analysis of the effects of birth order on the prevalence of schizophrenia, was that of Greenwood-Yule.
(4) Since in Brazil no population data are available, the Greenwood-Yule method seems useful and valid for the purpose, with the aid provided by Halperin's chi square modification.
(5) David Bowie: five of his best North American concerts Read more Bowie first travelled to New York in 1970, and though he saw the Velvet Underground perform, it was with Doug Yule fronting them rather than Lou Reed (Bowie spoke to Yule for an hour thinking that he was Reed).
(6) An essential aspect of the corresponding double barrier quantal model is its nonstationarity, resulting from combined application of binomial and Yule-Furry statistics.
(7) Lou Reed Remembered, produced and directed by Chris Rodley, features contributions by Boy George, Blondie's Debbie Harry, Thurston Moore and Velvet Underground members Moe Tucker and Doug Yule.
(8) A number of differences between the findings of Rutter and Yule and the present results were noted.
(9) These children's profiles of scores on the BAS were also entered into a cluster analysis which provided some confirmation of the validity of the Rutter & Yule classification.
(10) It is shown that the steady-state probability distribution of immunoglobulin variable-region frequencies is the Yule distribution.
(11) Reliability data will be presented which show sufficiently high kappa and Yule coefficients for a selected set of diagnostic criteria for depressive, manic and psychotic disorders.
(12) Cluster analysis using Yule's similarity coefficient produced a series of near neighbours which, when combined with relevant history details produced four diagnostic groupings which seem to have clinical relevance to referrals to an adolescent psychiatric clinic.
(13) The degree of agreement was calculated in the different sections of the instrument by Pearson's product-moment correlation, Kappa statistic and Yule's "Y" coefficient.
(14) By the Greenwood-Yule analysis, a small deficit of cases in the earlier birth order in the tuberculoid form was observed.
(15) The Yule measurement number (.54) indicated a medium stochastical link.
(16) A very high degree of association (0.88) has been found between DNA marker MetH and CF (as measured by the Yule's association coefficient) in our population.
(17) A method based on Yule's Q coefficient describing the degree of association between two dichotomous variables was applied.
(18) In 1975 Rutter and Yule distinguished between 'specific reading retardation' and 'general reading backwardness'.
(19) Both experiments yielded the same result: The dependency between the first and second tests, indexed by Yule's Q statistic, was greater for recognition and cued recall than it was for recognition and fragment completion.
(20) Our results indicate that both the AR(Yule-Walker) and ARMA(singular value decomposition) models of orders (8) and (4,4), respectively, show good agreement with the theoretical spectrum, and yield estimates with variances considerably less than the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).
