[The study] recommends the use of stage-structured models in which stages are embedded within age classes. This effectively increases the number of stages in a model. Such a population matrix can be constructed if one collects information on the stage of individuals in addition to age in order to construct a life table in which individuals are categorized into different age and stage classes. This approach is also useful when life history strategies are complex or when they do not exhibit age-dependent changes in vital rates. 1, record 1, English, - stage%2Dstructured%20model

The idea is to compute the consensus ranking and then plot each of the assessors’ ranks against the consensus... Here, only a short overview is given as follows : 1. Identify the product ranking for each assessor and define a consensus ranking for the panel. A good approach to achieve a consensus ranking is to perform a principal component analysis on the matrix of all assessor ranks using assessors as variables. The scores of the first principal component are then ranked to give the consensus. 2. For every assessor, calculate the cumulative ranks in the consensus order and subtract the cumulative rank for an hypothetic assessor who ranks all products the same. 3. The cumulative rank difference can then be plotted to give one curve for every assessor against the consensus. 3, record 2, English, - eggshell%20plot

Analysis of Molecular Variance(AMOVA) is a method for studying molecular variation within a species. Electrophoresis, one of the most widely used methods for studying the structure of DNA, produces data of the form of 0s and 1s where 1 denotes the presence of a band and zero its absence, e. g. Sample Band A 0101... B 1000... C 0110... AMOVA works on such data to create a distance matrix between samples in order to measure the genetic structure of a population. In statistical terms, AMOVA is a testing procedure based on permutational analysis and involves few assumptions. 3, record 6, English, - analysis%20of%20molecular%20variance

Franklin and McDermid(1993) and Franklin et al.(1996) proposed an alternative technique : a geographic window, where dimensions of a moving kernel are customized and are determined by variogram range. The technique proved to be promising and has been applied to derive texture measures like the co-occurrence matrix for image classification as well as first and second order texture and semivariance moment texture(nugget, range, sill, slope, mean semivariance) for LAI [Leaf Area Index] estimation(Wulder et al. 1997). 2, record 8, English, - variogram%20slope

Le variogramme est le plus souvent croissant, c'est-à-dire que les variations radiométriques sont statistiquement plus importantes sur n+1 pixels que sur n pixels. La pente du variogramme est un critère de rugosité : une pente forte caractérise un signal «lisse», sans transitions brutales, tandis qu'une pente faible caractérise un signal «accidenté». Une surface dont le variogramme a une pente constante présente la même texture à toutes les échelles. On dit qu'elle est auto-similaire ou fractale. 1, record 8, French, - pente%20de%20variogramme
