Abstract:

This study investigated the relationships between growth orientation, body height and depth on sampling sites. The survey was carried out during 2008 in the area of the island Mali Losinj. A total of 46 specimens of Halocynthia papillosa (Linnaeus, 1767) were analyzed. The growth orientation varied from 60? to 80? and body height was in the range of 20 mm to 110 mm. Pearson?s correlation coefficient shows the positive correlation between growth orientation and body height and the same correlation is determined between depth and body height. The Spearman rank correlation coefficient shows a mor

By testing the hypotheses, we verify the correlation of the entire population. After finding a relatively close correlation (0.6 - 0.8), we apply different regression models, especially polynomial, but also exponential. We evaluate the properties of parameters in models,

This is a retrospective analysis of the records of 23 patients with posterior TPF treated at our institution between 2004 and 2011. Two indices of residual articular displacement of posterior TPF (gap and step-off) were measured from CT images, and clinical outcomes were assessed using the Short Musculoskeletal Function Assessment (SMFA) questionnaire. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient analysis was used to evaluate the correlations betw

Calculating Linerank remains manageable even for graphs of billion nodes, it was offered as a substitute of betweenness in [12]. To the best of our knowledge the relationship between these measures has never been seriously examined. We calculate the Pearson?s and Spearman?s correlation coefficients for both node and edge variants of these measures. For edges the correlation tends to be rather low. Our tests with the Girvan-
