The following is a list of GCE Ordinary Level subjects offered by Cambridge International Examinations (CAIE).You can choose from more than 40 subjects in any combination. [ 1 ] Cambridge O Levels, Cambridge IGCSE and/or Cambridge International Level 1 or Level 2 Certificates may be taken in the same examination session but certain combinations ...
The distance matrix can come from a number of different sources, including measured distance (for example from immunological studies) or morphometric analysis, various pairwise distance formulae (such as euclidean distance) applied to discrete morphological characters, or genetic distance from sequence, restriction fragment, or allozyme data.
UniFrac, a shortened version of unique fraction metric, is a distance metric used for comparing biological communities.It differs from dissimilarity measures such as Bray-Curtis dissimilarity in that it incorporates information on the relative relatedness of community members by incorporating phylogenetic distances between observed organisms in the computation.
The Bray–Curtis dissimilarity is bounded between 0 and 1, where 0 means the two sites have the same composition (that is they share all the species), and 1 means the two sites do not share any species. At sites with where BC is intermediate (e.g. BC = 0.5) this index differs from other commonly used indices. [3]
In analytical chemistry, quantitative analysis is the determination of the absolute or relative abundance (often expressed as a concentration) of one, several or all particular substance(s) present in a sample. [1] It relates to the determination of percentage of constituents in any given sample. [2]
Retrosynthetic analysis was used as early as 1917 in Robinson's Tropinone total synthesis. [1] Important conceptual work on retrosynthetic analysis was published by George Vladutz in 1963 . [ 2 ] [ 3 ] E.J. Corey formalized and popularized the concept from 1967 onwards in his article General methods for the construction of complex molecules and ...
Figure 1: Genetic distance map by Cavalli-Sforza et al. (1994) [1] Genetic distance is a measure of the genetic divergence between species or between populations within a species, whether the distance measures time from common ancestor or degree of differentiation. [2] Populations with many similar alleles have small genetic distances. This ...
Chemometrics is the science of extracting information from chemical systems by data-driven means. Chemometrics is inherently interdisciplinary, using methods frequently employed in core data-analytic disciplines such as multivariate statistics, applied mathematics, and computer science, in order to address problems in chemistry, biochemistry, medicine, biology and chemical engineering.
