Word: LOD Part of Speech: noun 1. Initialism of limit of detection; the smallest concentration that can be detected using a specific method. Labels: abbreviation, alt-of, countable, initialism, uncountable Example: The lowest response region in the spectrum is that which has the LOD as the upper bound. It is clear that if a response that is smaller than the response associated with the LOD is observed, the analytical result should be reported as "less than the LOD" or "not detected." Example: PFOS exceeded the LOD in potatoes, canned vegetables, eggs, sugars, and preserves, with highest levels detected in potatoes (10 ng/g ww). 2. Alternative letter-case form of lod (“logarithm of odds”). Labels: alt-of, countable, uncountable Example: In practice, the LOD score is computed over a wide range of values for 6. Example: For historical reasons, the LOD score functions LOD(Θ) = log ʌ(Θ) is preferred in genetic epidemiologial applications over LR(Θ) = 2ln ʌ(Θ). 3. Initialism of level of detail. Labels: abbreviation, alt-of, countable, initialism, uncountable Example: We have worked hard to tweak the weights on the first LOD until Kila deforms accurately as she moves. Example: The paper proposes a time-controlling algorithm for large-scale terrain rendering, which can't be efficiently dealt with by LOD technique. 4. Initialism of length of day. Labels: abbreviation, alt-of, countable, initialism, uncountable Example: On very long time scale, tidal friction is responsible for a secular decrease in the Earth's rotation rate and thus for an increase in the length of day (LOD) (for more details, see for instance Brosche and Sṻndermann [1978]). Example: This long-term change in the LOD must be reomoved from the total change to obtain the short period and decade variations. 5. Initialism of line of duty; an official determination of whether something occurred in the line of duty. Labels: abbreviation, alt-of, countable, initialism, uncountable Example: Additionally, commanders should note that a LOD proceeding is neither a substitute for, nor a bar to, such disciplinary action as may be warrented. Example: LOD investigations are usually a result of a soldier or other personnel being killed or injured, and the investigation is necessary to determine if the cause was in the line of duty, or if the actions that caused the casualties or injuries were a result of neglect or misconduct and not in the line of duty. 6. Initialism of linked open data. Labels: Internet, abbreviation, alt-of, countable, initialism, uncountable Example: While most LOD metadata employs multiple vocabularies and metadata schemas for description, for the sake of simplicity this exploration of RDF will use only a single metadata schema, Dublin Core. Example: LOD (Linked Open Data) is an international endeavor to interlink structured data on the Web and create the Web of Data on a global level. In this paper, we report about our experience of applying existing LOD frameworks, most of which are designed to run only in European language environments, to Korean resources to build linked data. 7. Initialism of line of dance; a counterclockwise direction for circuiting the dance floor. Labels: abbreviation, alt-of, countable, initialism, uncountable Example: Position: Intro, Left-Open, M on outside, M's L and W's R hands joined, both facing LOD. Example: Beginners will often use a box step or not get too involved in the LOD until they get a feel of matching their steps with the musical measures. 8. Initialism of last order date, part of the product lifecycle. Labels: abbreviation, alt-of, countable, initialism, uncountable
