  2. Genetic testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_testing

    Results for prenatal testing are usually available more quickly because time is an important consideration in making decisions about a pregnancy. Prior to the testing, the doctor or genetic counselor who is requesting a particular test can provide specific information about the cost and time frame associated with that test.

  3. Multiple comparisons problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_comparisons_problem

    A normal quantile plot for a simulated set of test statistics that have been standardized to be Z-scores under the null hypothesis. The departure of the upper tail of the distribution from the expected trend along the diagonal is due to the presence of substantially more large test statistic values than would be expected if all null hypotheses were true.

    The new multiple range test proposed by Duncan makes use of special protection levels based upon degrees of freedom.Let , = be the protection level for testing the significance of a difference between two means; that is, the probability that a significant difference between two means will not be found if the population means are equal.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogical_DNA_test

    Y-DNA testing results are normally stated as probabilities: For example, with the same surname a perfect 37/37 marker test match gives a 95% likelihood of the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) being within 8 generations, [51] while a 111 of 111 marker match gives the same 95% likelihood of the MRCA being within only 5 generations back. [52]

    The worksheet below includes the data that the family has decided to evaluate. They believe that a heavier car is a safer car, so they've documented the curb weights of their alternatives. They have investigated the results of government crash tests, and they've summarized the results on the worksheet: Safety data to be evaluated by the Jones ...

  7. A3 problem solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A3_Problem_Solving

    Example of a worksheet for structured problem solving and continuous improvement. A3 problem solving is a structured problem-solving and continuous-improvement approach, first employed at Toyota and typically used by lean manufacturing practitioners. [1] It provides a simple and strict procedure that guides problem solving by workers.

  8. List of NP-complete problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NP-complete_problems

    The problem for graphs is NP-complete if the edge lengths are assumed integers. The problem for points on the plane is NP-complete with the discretized Euclidean metric and rectilinear metric. The problem is known to be NP-hard with the (non-discretized) Euclidean metric. [3]: ND22, ND23

  9. Genetic algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_algorithm

    Problems which appear to be particularly appropriate for solution by genetic algorithms include timetabling and scheduling problems, and many scheduling software packages are based on GAs [citation needed]. GAs have also been applied to engineering. [34] Genetic algorithms are often applied as an approach to solve global optimization problems.
