Each Descendant has an affinity to different play styles, from focusing on defense to pure damage. [6] As a result, each Descendant can be built, through the mod system, to maximize their affinities and give the Descendant more power. [6] Each Descendant and weapon have a mod capacity which restricts the amount of mods the player can use. [4]
First-fit-decreasing (FFD) is an algorithm for bin packing. Its input is a list of items of different sizes. Its input is a list of items of different sizes. Its output is a packing - a partition of the items into bins of fixed capacity, such that the sum of sizes of items in each bin is at most the capacity.
Modified first-fit-decreasing (MFFD) [27], improves on FFD for items larger than half a bin by classifying items by size into four size classes large, medium, small, and tiny, corresponding to items with size > 1/2 bin, > 1/3 bin, > 1/6 bin, and smaller items respectively.
Interval scheduling is a class of problems in computer science, particularly in the area of algorithm design. The problems consider a set of tasks. Each task is represented by an interval describing the time in which it needs to be processed by some machine (or, equivalently, scheduled on some resource).
The goal is to maximize the value of the objective function subject to the constraints. A solution is a vector (a list) of n values that achieves the maximum value for the objective function. In the dual problem, the objective function is a linear combination of the m values that are the limits in the m constraints from the primal problem.
Cope's rule, named after American paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope, [1] [2] postulates that population lineages tend to increase in body size over evolutionary time. [3] It was never actually stated by Cope, although he favoured the occurrence of linear evolutionary trends. [4]
The duration of an equity is a noisy analogue of the Macaulay duration of a bond, due to the variability and unpredictability of dividend payments. The duration of a stock or the stock market is implied rather than deterministic. Duration of the U.S. stock market as a whole, and most individual stocks within it, is many years to a few decades.
[1] [2] [3] Charles Darwin was the first to describe the role of natural selection in speciation in his 1859 book On the Origin of Species. [4] He also identified sexual selection as a likely mechanism, but found it problematic.
