WC [waist circumference] and calf circumference(CC) are simple and non-invasive measures that have been proposed as markers of adiposity and muscle mass, respectively, and have been used to assess frailty... The waist-calf circumference ratio(WCR) is [an] index that combines both measures, serving as an effective method for evaluating the imbalance between abdominal fat and leg muscle mass. WCR has been proposed as a reliable predictor of cognitive impairment..., carotid atherosclerosis..., and health-related quality of life..., and has been shown to be a superior predictor of health outcomes compared to BMI [body mass index], WC, or CC alone.

The Kerrison Predictor was one of the first fully automated anti-aircraft fire-control systems. The Predictor solved the problem by doing all of the calculations mechanically through a complex system of gears. Inputs to its calculations included wind speed, ballistics of the gun and the rounds it fired, angle to the target in azimuth and altitude, and a user-input estimated target speed. Some of these inputs were fed in by dials, which turned gearing inside the Predictor to calculate the range(from the change in angle and estimated speed) and direction of motion.

DEF

The popular early name for an American Indian who treats the sick or has special powers. More specific terms are used by contemporary scholars. Medicine men also exist in other primitive societies.

CONT

The medicine man played the role of mediator between the gods and simple humans. He interpreted dreams, directed all religious ceremonies and dances, questioned the supernatural powers, looked into the future and advised the warriors. Finally he cured the sick, using magic plants, and practised exorcism and magic with incantations related to the Micmac nation’s religious mythology.

CONT

In religious matters, powwows (priests or medicine men) were in charge, using their powers to cure the sick, bring rain or ensure victory in battle.

CONT

The Indian of the Colombian Amazon distinguish two general classes of bioactive plants. The first are regarded as sacred, and they are used exclusively by or under the strict supervision of the "payé", or medicine man.

OBS

Stylistic synonyms :"medicine man", "pow(w) ow", "predictor" and "shaman". These three terms have all too frequently been used interchangeably, owing to the overlapping job descriptions of each one of these terms. The same can be said of the corresponding French equivalents "sorcier", "guérisseur", "chaman(e) ", "homme-médecine", "sorcier guérisseur", etc. Often an author's selection of one word over that of another is solely based on a particular perspective he wants to impart on his text : by using "medicine", he would emphasize the beneficial powers of the person in question; whereas by using "shaman", a term originally used to refer to a Siberian medicine man, the author would focus on the use of magic in the performance of rituals. Note however that "shaman/chamane" would be the term used by Europeans to describe the occult performed by non-Europeans; it would not be used by native peoples to refer to one of their own kind. As for "powwow", this author does not recommend its use today because of the confusion that might arise, owing to the polysemous nature of the term(could also mean a special meeting). Nevertheless the use of "powwow", a specific native term used by certain aboriginal tribes in the past, could impart an ethnic coloring to a given text if such is desired. The interchangeability of similar terms occurs also in French. Hence, in French, one who heals but is not certified as a doctor is commonly called a "guérisseur"; whereas one who specializes in magic(whether for medicinal purposes or not) is called a "sorcier".

CONT

Wind energy is the world's fastest growing renewable source of electricity … the atmospheric flows are strongly volatile, and therefore, the average wind speed at a given location is a very poor predictor of the energy output of a wind turbine. The basic requirement for wind power estimates is an adequate characterization of the empirical probability distribution of wind speeds since wind direction is less important because of the well developed methods of yaw control for modern turbines. The statistical description is highly simplified when a measured histogram can be accurately fitted by an analytical probability density function(PDF) with a few parameters. The traditional approach of modeling the wind speed PDF is based on the Rayleigh and the more flexible Weibull distributions. However, several authors noted that Weibull fits of empirical data have low quality at several locations, mostly over land.

In statistics, regression analysis is a method for explanation of phenomena and prediction of future events. In the regression analysis, a coefficient of correlation r between random variables X and Y is a quantitative index of association between these two variables. In its squared form, as a coefficient of determination r 2, indicates the amount of variance in the criterion variable Y that is accounted for by the variation in the predictor variable X. In the multiple regression analysis, the set of predictor variables X1, X2,... is used to explain variability of the criterion variable Y. A multivariate counterpart of the coefficient of determination r 2 is the coefficient of multiple determination, R 2. The square root of the coefficient of multiple determination is the coefficient of multiple correlation, R.

Powerful options combine the basic analysis of one hammer blow into the simulation of a complete pile driving process. Today the GRLWEAP software is recognized by many specifying agencies as the most reliable predictor of dynamic pile driving stresses, hammer performance, and either blow count or bearing capacity of an impact driven pile.

The frequency of abnormal respiratory events per hour of sleep. These events are classified as Apneas or Hypopneas. Apnea is when breathing (airflow) stops for 10 seconds or more. Hypopnea is a partial blockage of airflow resulting in arousal and a possible drop in oxygen level. An RDI of 45 would indicate that the patient is experiencing complete or partial airflow blockage 45 times per hour.

CONT

Sleep-disordered breathing, which may include apneas, hypopneas and respiratory effort related arousals(RERAs), is the hallmark of OSA [obstructive sleep apnea]. It is currently standard in clinical practice and epidemiologic studies to assess the severity of sleep-disordered breathing by combining the number of apneas and hypopneas per hour of sleep in an index called the apnea-hypopnea index(AHI) or the respiratory disturbance index(RDI). This index has been shown to be both a reproducible measurement and a predictor of associated cardiovascular disease.

The Photochemical Reflectance Index: An optical indicator of photosynthetic radiation use efficiency across species, functional types, and nutrient levels ...

CONT

... a new suite of indices have been developed that exploits narrow band spectroradiometric data. The physiological reflectance index(PRI) introduced by Gamon et al.(1992) follows the form of equation 1 and is based on reflectances at 531 nm(band 1) and 570 nm(band 2) wavelengths. Gamon et al.(1997) renamed this the photochemical reflectance index and suggested that the index was a good predictor of photosynthetic radiation use efficiency at the leaf or canopy level, if the canopy is uniform and completely covers the soil background. The index has not shown sensitivity to nutrient stress, but it is affected by water stress with severe wilting...

CONT

Heating treatments increase aboveground net primary production (detectable via the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, a measure of green biomass) and enhance gross photosynthesis (detectable via the Photochemical Reflectance Index, a measure of xanthophyll cycle pigment activity and relative photosynthetic rate). ... Heating enhanced the Photochemical Reflectance Index (PRI) slightly relative to that of controls. This enhancement was most visible near noon, and relaxed by 3:00 pm ..., suggesting that this effect was a temporally dynamic one reflecting altered physiological activity towards midday.

Dans le but d'évaluer la possibilité de mesurer les indices de vigueur des forêts à partir de la réflectance spectrale foliaire, [...] Nous avons mesuré la réflectance des pousses des sapins baumiers de chacun des traitements en laboratoire au moyen d'un spectroradiomètre portatif dont la gamme spectrale s'étendait de 350 nm à 2 500 nm. [...] La plupart des gammes d'ondes ont révélé que les traitements avaient eu des effets marqués, et les gammes d'ondes les plus significatives se trouvaient dans la région d'absorption de la chlorophylle entre 500 nm et 740 nm. [...] Les traitements ont influé sur les indices de réflectance, qui sont définis comme le rapport et l'écart normalisé entre la gamme d'ondes la plus significative à 711 nm et la gamme d'ondes la moins significative à 913 nm (P < 0,0001).

CONT

[...] nous avons montré que les variations de l'indice de réflectance PRI (physiological reflectance index) étaient liées aux mécanismes de dissipation thermique de l'excès d'énergie absorbée par la végétation et pouvaient être appliquées à la détection du stress hydrique chez la vigne.

Due to the volume of data from Skylab experiments it was necessary to compress the vectorcardiographic data and eliminate redundant samples. A zero order predictor algorithm was selected as the data compression technique. In essence, a digital sample of a parameter was tested to determine if it differed from the value of the sample last transmitted. If there was no difference between the current sample and the previous sample, the value was considered to be redundant and not transmitted to L. B. Johnson Space Center.
