gloss: Expressed in terms of factors (values that are multiplied together to form a whole)
pos: adj
examples: A radical in final factored form is written last, proceeded by the other factors listed with numbers before letters (variables); and variables are usually listed in alphabetical order.
An alternative representation (to sum-of-product form) of a logic function which is closer to the physical implementation of the logic is the factored form.
It follows from this definition that in factored expressions, complements are permitted only for the literals.
gloss: Having been subjected to, or resulting from a factor analysis.
pos: adj
examples: To study the predictive efficiency of the M-Scales, the design was based on correlational analysis while the factored dimensions of the M-Scales were studied through factor analysis.
Few of the studies cited in this chapter report the intercorrelations of the factored inventory.
These authors have investigated current practices in the use of factor analysis and have found them lacking in six areas: ratio of variable to factors, average reliability of the factored variables, sample size, type of analysis, factor retention, and factor rotation.
gloss: Based on groups or categories of inputs.
pos: adj
examples: In Argos we used factored data descriptions. Instead of considering the body of a description as a collection of predicates all of equal importance, we group the predicates into meaningful concepts for the domain, and then use these concepts as appropriate in the body of the relational definitions.
In factored models, translation consists of applying translation and generation steps that gradually fill in the target-side factors and produce a final translation.
In the short run, these procedures do not change and represent the accumulated learning embodied in the factored decision making of the organization.
gloss: Adjusted (usually increased) to compensate for unknown factors or associated amounts.
pos: adj
examples: The reader's attention is drawn to the main disadvantage of a factored estimate (vs. a curve estimate, the normal alternative at this stage in project development).
The results of these four analyses are shown in Table 6-1, along with factored moments for an interior span obtained by the direct design method.
When the factored shear exceeds this value, reinforcement shall be provided to resist the full torsion.
Where the factored in-plane deviation force exceeds the lateral shear resistance of the concrete cover, tieback reinforcement is required.
gloss: Pertaining to the sale of receivables to a third party.
pos: adj
examples: Factored loan volume in the United States last year alone was in excess of $80 billion (most of which was done by banks).
Always be honest and make absolutely sure all your factored invoices are accurate so the trust is maintained and your business can continue to grow.
The amount of income equivalent to interest realized with respect to a factored receivable is the difference (if a positive number) between the amount paid for the receivable by the foreign corporation and the amount that it collects on the receivable (or realizes upon its sale of the receivable).
