Example sentences for: scale-independent

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

  • For over a decade the idea of representing biological sequences in a continuous coordinate space has maintained its appeal but not been fully realized [ 1 2 3 ] . The basic idea is that sequences of symbols, such as nucleotides in genomes, aminoacids in proteomes, repeated sequences in MLST [Multi Locus Sequence Typing, 4], words in languages or letters in words, would define trajectories in this continuous space conserving the statistical properties of the original sequences [ 3 5 6 7 8 9 ] . Accordingly, the coordinate position of each unit would uniquely encode for both its identity and its context, i.e. the identity of its neighbors [ 10 ] . Ideally, the position should be scale-independent, such that the extraction of the encompassing sequence can be performed with any resolution, leading to an oligomer of arbitrary length.

  • USM representations of discrete sequences in genomics and proteomics offer the possibility of scale-independent representations of sequence information surrounding points of comparison in those sequences.

  • It could then be argued that, given the discrete nature of biological sequences, new scale-independent numerical representations, such as USM, are all but the first step in the identification of more accurate Boolean equivalents of fundamental relevance.

  • The application of USM as a tool for measuring scale-independent discrete sequence similarity and its particular application to genomics and proteomics exploits a distance metric providing an estimate of the length of similar regions surrounding a pair of symbols.
