31. But they also found deviations from the linear model at time intervals less than 2 seconds. 32. One reason is that these linear models are developed using straightforward methods from process test data. 33. This is a simple linear model that shows a strong correlation between IPC and OS routine power. 34. Because linear algebra is such a well-developed theory, nonlinear mathematical models are sometimes approximated by linear models . 35. The design matrix is used in certain statistical models, e . g ., the general linear model . 36. Developments of the theory of linear models have encompassed and surpassed the cases that concerned early writers. 37. In hierarchical generalized linear models , the distributions of random effect u do not necessarily follow normal distribution. 38. That said, that linear model sounds oversimplistic for something as complicated as the earth / atmosphere system. 39. But this is still considered a linear model because it is linear in the " ? " s. 40. It is not a linear model .
