  2. Interval graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_graph

    Cohen applied interval graphs to mathematical models of population biology, specifically food webs. [15] Interval graphs are used to represent resource allocation problems in operations research and scheduling theory. In these applications, each interval represents a request for a resource (such as a processing unit of a distributed computing ...

    They also showed why lifespan scales as the + 1 ⁄ 4 power and heart rate as the - 1 ⁄ 4 power. Blood flow (+ 3 ⁄ 4) and resistance (-3 ⁄ 4) scale in the same way, leading to blood pressure being constant across species. [37] Hu and Hayton in 2001 discussed whether the basal metabolic rate scale is a 2 ⁄ 3 or 3 ⁄ 4 power of body mass.

    The graphs can be used together to determine the economic equilibrium (essentially, to solve an equation). Simple graph used for reading values: the bell-shaped normal or Gaussian probability distribution, from which, for example, the probability of a man's height being in a specified range can be derived, given data for the adult male population.

    interval 1. An interval graph is an intersection graph of intervals of a line. 2. The interval [u, v] in a graph is the union of all shortest paths from u to v. 3. Interval thickness is a synonym for pathwidth. invariant A synonym of property. inverted arrow An arrow with an opposite direction compared to another arrow.

    Confidence intervals; A confidence interval is a range of values that can contain the true real parameter value in given a certain level of confidence. The first step is to estimate the best-unbiased estimate of the population parameter.

    After one hour, or six ten-minute intervals, there would be sixty-four bacteria. Many pairs (b, τ) of a dimensionless non-negative number b and an amount of time τ (a physical quantity which can be expressed as the product of a number of units and a unit of time) represent the same growth rate, with τ proportional to log b.

  8. Indifference graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indifference_graph

    An indifference graph, formed from a set of points on the real line by connecting pairs of points whose distance is at most one. In graph theory, a branch of mathematics, an indifference graph is an undirected graph constructed by assigning a real number to each vertex and connecting two vertices by an edge when their numbers are within one unit of each other.

  9. Generic and specific intervals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_and_specific_intervals

    For example, for every generic interval of a second there are only two possible specific intervals: 1 semitone (a minor second) or 2 semitones (a major second). In diatonic set theory a generic interval is the number of scale steps between notes of a collection or scale. The largest generic interval is one less than the number of scale members ...
