Example sentences for: poisson

How can you use “poisson” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Raw data from each study is given for mild or greater AR in table 3and for moderate or greater MR in table 4. Estimates of unexposed incidence of AR and MR utilizing data from the control groups in these studies yielded values approximately 50% higher than estimates from the Framingham study; 0.555% per year for mild or greater AR and 0.219% per year for moderate or greater MR. To provide conservative estimates of relative risk, these rates were used to calculate the expected number affected (given the duration of exposure in each study) for Poisson analyses in tables 5and 6. Estimates of "incident" cases and relative risks based on person-years are also given in tables 5and 6.
εA c zd are small compared to C, c A is approximately Poisson distributed with mean μ
The expected number of cases in the exposed population (for Poisson analyses) was calculated as the incidence rate (per year) determined from the pooled rate in controls (obtained as described above) multiplied by the duration of exposure (in years).
The Poisson distribution, P(x) = e -μμ x x!
To determine the amount of bias in the distribution of introns among their exon sequences, the Poisson distribution (here, μ is the mean frequency of introns for a particular exon and x is the target number of introns per rRNA gene) has been used to calculate the number of rRNA sequences expected to contain a given number of introns (rRNA Introns Table 4).
