While the more general approach of such adaptive systems is more suitable for real-world problem solving, it has far less to do with the traditional artificial intelligence connectionist models.

While it is clear that the closed / semi-closed / semi-open / open classification commonly used by scholars studying primary systems does not fully explain the highly nuanced differences seen from state to state, still, it is very useful and has real-world implications for the electorate, election officials, and the candidates themselves.

While physical simulation needs to simulate real-world physics as precisely as possible, video games need to simulate real-world physics in an acceptable way, in real time and robustly.

While a universal translator seems unlikely, due to the apparent need for telepathy, scientists continue to work towards similar real-world technologies involving small numbers of known languages.

" While it may be possible for adult learners to gain knowledge and apply theories presented in other learning environments to what they experience in a real-world setting, situated learning offers an opportunity to work with others in considering how to best apply new concepts related to the specific context of their practice.

While pure fantasy games were initially popular, games such as Ars Magica popularized the notion of fantasy set within elements of real-world history.

While some collectors specialize in philatelic covers, especially first day covers and cacheted covers, others regard them as contrived objects that are not reflective of real-world usage, and often will pay a higher price for a cover that represents genuine commercial use.

While some real-world trains do use a third rail, the prototypes for the majority of model railroad operations do not.

While many believe in theory that this may be a superior system if budgets for training, real-world time pressures and expenses were also unlimited ( i. e., to allow multi-angle camera reply systems and unlimited time for scoring ), the actual application of this scoring technique is impractical on a drill event hosting more than a small number of teams along with the fact that the system currently focuses mainly on the more subjective exhibition phases of military drill competitions.

While the areas found in Bloodlines are based on real places, they do not completely resemble their real-world counterparts.

While many of the scenarios are fictional, some are based on real-world countries such as the United States, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

While GPS solved simple problems such as the Towers of Hanoi that could be sufficiently formalized, it could not solve any real-world problems because search was easily lost in the combinatorial explosion of intermediate states.

While real-world noise shaping usually includes in-loop dithering, it is also possible to use it without adding dither at all, in which case the usual harmonic-distortion effects still appear at low signal levels.

" While away from the band he " managed to get three-quarters of the way to a bachelor ’ s degree " in English at Schreiner University in Kerrville, Texas — named for " Captain Charles Schreiner, a Texas Ranger and Confederate veteran who founded the school "— where he " couldn ’ t help but learn a thing or two from his classmates about the real-world impact of the music he ’ d helped create ".

While application benchmarks usually give a much better measure of real-world performance on a given system, synthetic benchmarks are useful for testing individual components, like a hard disk or networking device.

While keeping the interactivity level and the real-world level design of the original game, Wages of Sin adds a few extra elements beyond the standard weapons and enemies upgrade.

While Lawrence's team crafted stories of real-world mystery and exploration, later writers used science fiction and paranormal plots.

While current sources or sinks are abstract elements used for analysis, generally they have physical counterparts in real-world applications ; e. g. the anode or cathode in a battery.

While the elementary model described above is totally unadapted to the description of real-world polymers at the microscopic scale, it does show some relevance at the macroscopic scale in the case of a polymer in solution whose monomers form an ideal mix with the solvent ( in which case, the interactions between monomer and monomer, solvent molecule and solvent molecule, and between monomer and solvent are identical, and the system's energy can be considered constant, validating the hypothesis of the model ).

While most game operators expressly ban the practice of selling in-game currency for real-world cash, gold farming is lucrative because it takes advantage of economic inequality and the fact that much time is needed to earn in-game currency.

While any combination and number of string instruments is possible in a section, a traditional string section sound is achieved with a violin-heavy balance of instruments.

The Allmusic review by Marc Gilman awarded the album 4½ stars noting that " While some compositions retain their original structure and sound, some are expanded and probed by Zorn's arrangements, and resemble avant-garde classical music more than jazz.

While most may think that the body of the drum produces the sound, it is in fact actually the membrane and its vibration that creates the sound when struck.

While performers and singers garnered the lion's share of public attention, producers working behind the scenes played an equal, if not more important role in disco, since they often wrote the songs and created the innovative sounds and production techniques that were part of the " disco sound.

While mostly a rational man of sound reason, his reading of books of chivalry in excess has had a profound effect on him, leading to the distortion of his perception and the wavering of his mental faculties.

While performing on a brass instrument, the sound is produced by the player buzzing his or her lips into a mouthpiece.

While a truly characteristic euphonium sound is rather hard to define precisely, most players would agree that an ideal sound is dark, rich, warm, and velvety, with virtually no hardness to it.

However, these images are still mediated by the same factors as traditional film, such as the “ moving camera, composition, editing, lighting, and all varieties of sound .” While acknowledging the value in inserting positive representations of women in film, some critics asserted that real change would only come about from reconsidering the role of film in society, often from a semiotic point of view.

While light, highly maneuverable aircraft did have some advantages in fighter-versus-fighter combat, those could usually be overcome by sound tactical doctrine, and the design approach of the Italians and Japanese made their planes ill-suited as interceptors or attack aircraft.

While he had been in the vanguard with The Byrds and the Burrito Brothers, Parsons was now perceived as being too authentic and traditional in an era dominated by the stylings of the Eagles, whose sound Parsons disdained ( although he did maintain cordial relations with Bernie Leadon, a former member of the Eagles who left the group in 1975 ).

While his design was sound and the plans were probably correct, or at least debuggable, the project was slowed by various problems including disputes with the chief machinist building parts for it.

While the comb material does have a slight influence over the sound of the harmonica, the main advantage of a particular comb material over another one is its durability.

While the sound remained more or less the same when pronounced in Japanese, the literal meaning of the name changed from " Beating Dog " to " High Hero ".

While incomplete and subtitled a " fragment ", its language is highly stylised with a strong emphasis on sound devices that change between the poem's original two stanzas.

While they were viewed as Green Day " acolytes ", critics also found teen pop acts like Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys, and ' N Sync suitable points of comparison for Blink-182's sound and market niche.

While other inventors had produced devices that could record sounds, Edison's phonograph was the first to be able to reproduce the recorded sound.

While there are many audiophiles who still prefer vinyl records over digital music sources ( primarily compact disc ) for superior sound quality, they represent an enthusiastic minority of listeners.

While musically these albums do not deviate significantly from a general pop-rock sound, Rush incorporated traces of other musical styles.

While some of these early experiments were awkward fusions, the Afro-Cuban elements were eventually integrated fully into the New Orleans sound.

While subtractive synthesis can be applied to any source audio signal, the sound most commonly associated with the technique is that of analog synthesizers of the 1960s and 1970s, in which the harmonics of simple waveforms such as sawtooth, pulse or square waves are attenuated with a voltage-controlled resonant low-pass filter.

While the physics behind the proposition is sound, the removal of one flawed data point from the original study rendered the application of the concept in these circumstances unwarranted.

While Richman never returned to the Velvets-inspired sound of the original Modern Lovers, the demo recordings made with that group eventually surfaced in various formats.
