financial/investment parameters The new investment parameters of the investment fund will allow investors to rebalance their portfolios.
performance/price/risk parameters The company has been asked to explain the performance parameters of their scheme.
define/establish/set parameters It is important to set paramaters for working hours that are reasonably flexible.
broad/clear/general paramaters Policies create clear parameters and make it easier to manage everyday business life.
parameters for/around sth The parameters for establishing the fund are vague.
within the parameters of sth We must work within the parameters of the law.
The report defines the parameters of best practice at a strategic, operational, and process level within an organization.
Detailed parameter studies of future planned experiments will probably give more insight.
Girls can dance, but only within the parameters of the doctor's orders.
The filter parameters, the transport delay, and the gain parameters were however free to vary.
To find the designs with desired link parameters, we can fix some desired parameters and use the remaining parameters as design variables.
The learning parameters at the beginning of the training was set as: = 0.99 and = 100.
Table 1 lists and defines those parameters for which data were collected for our analysis.
The actual parameter must satisfy whatever assumptions are made about it, or the procedure may abort.
This model was used to analyze the raw data and estimate the parameters shown above directly from the data.
