Analyzing climate change business risk helps companies choose the most effective actions.
Ranking is a fundamental concept in statistics. Ranks of univariate data are used by statisticians to estimate statistics such as percentiles (quantiles) and empirical distributions. A more advanced use is to compute various rank-based measures of correlation or association between pairs of variables. For example, ranks are used to compute
A few months ago, I published an article about network optimization and how to find an optimal tour when visiting multiple places of interest by using different types of transportation, like buses, trains, tram, metro, and even walking. For a real-world case, I decided to run these optimal tours in
