The inputs in each rank must be assigned to m different bins: rank 1 first, then rank 2, etc. The minimum sum in RLPT is at most the ...

The difference between the average lifespan, minus the number of unhealthy years, estimated what the researchers call the health span-lifespan gap. The global lifespan is nearly a decade longer ...
