The inverse of the Ackermann function appears in some time complexity results. For instance, the disjoint-set data structure takes amortized time per operation proportional to the inverse Ackermann function, [24] and cannot be made faster within the cell-probe model of computational complexity. [25]
An example is a taxonomy where different vegetables inherit from their ancestor species. Attempting to compare the tastiness of each vegetable with the others becomes intractable since the hierarchy only contains information about genetics and makes no mention of tastiness.
The final iteration through all edges performs two find operations and possibly one union operation per edge. These operations take amortized time O(α(V)) time per operation, giving worst-case total time O(E α(V)) for this loop, where α is the extremely slowly growing inverse Ackermann function. This part of the time bound is much smaller ...
What is Maslow’s hierarchy of needs? We explain the commonly circulated concept with some examples of how it translates in the real world.
MSTs are useful and versatile tools utilised in a wide variety of practical and theoretical fields. For example, a company looking to supply multiple stores with a certain product from a single warehouse might use an MST originating at the warehouse to calculate the shortest paths to each company store.
Here's an example of a modified Ackermann function which simplifies the explicit formulas for each level in the hierarchy. This function is defined for positive integers m,n both starting at 1 instead of 0:
Through an exploratory analysis of the Big Five literature, John Digman came up with two superordinate factors on a higher level than the Big Five. He referred to these factors as "alpha" and "beta". Alpha refers to a combination of agreeableness, conscientiousness and emotional stability (the inverse of neuroticism).
The following hierarchy is an example of a cognitive model task performance for the knowledge and skills in the areas of ratio, factoring, function, and substitution (called the Ratios and Algebra hierarchy). [9] This hierarchy is divergent and composed of nine attributes which are described below.
