Corpus analysis for Pairwise
- In this selection, "pairwise" usually appears in the middle of the sentence. The average example has 25.3 words, and this corpus slice is mostly made up of statements.
- Around the word, standard, resulting, hierarchical, comparisons, disjoint and count stand out and add context to how "pairwise" is used.
- Recognizable usage signals include a hierarchical pairwise fashion between and and another pairwise count indicates. That gives this page its own corpus information beyond isolated example sentences.
- By corpus frequency, "pairwise" sits close to words such as aas, abaco and abramovich, which helps place it inside the broader word index.
Example types with pairwise

Example sentences (20)
In general, using standard pairwise comparisons, the more arms included, the greater the sample size, but it is not clear that such pairwise comparisons are ideal for determining optimal treatment duration.
For each possible pair of candidates, one pairwise count indicates how many voters prefer one of the paired candidates over the other candidate, and another pairwise count indicates how many voters have the opposite preference.
Pairwise coprimality is a stronger condition than setwise coprimality; every pairwise coprime finite set is also setwise coprime, but the reverse is not true.

A family F of sets is pairwise disjoint if, for every two sets in the family, their intersection is empty.
A family of sets is pairwise disjoint or mutually disjoint if every two different sets in the family are disjoint.
Also the empty family of sets is pairwise disjoint.
A more sophisticated two-stage process is, in the event of an ambiguity, to use a separate voting system to find the winner but to restrict this second stage to a certain subset of candidates found by scrutinizing the results of the pairwise comparisons.
A set of integers can also be called coprime if its elements share no common positive factor except 1. A set of integers is said to be pairwise coprime if a and b are coprime for every pair (a, b) of different integers in it.
Construction from polygons Each closed surface can be constructed from an oriented polygon with an even number of sides, called a fundamental polygon of the surface, by pairwise identification of its edges.
