As in
In the following sentence:
"In addition, our mapping is regular on the whole space, or more specifically, at the center points on the object surface; this makes the deformation of the clam and the chameleon models feasible as in the direct deformation methods."
I've been told that my usage of 'as in' (which I meant as 'like in') is incorrect and should be instead '...as feasible as...'.
What do you think?
