The probability of Sample Clauses

The probability of relevance for structure A is determined by its history of relevance (HA) and the ‘terms of the query’ (Q). The posterior probability of relevance given HA and Q is given by three fundamental quantities: the outright probability of relevance given HA (ignoring the query terms); the probability p Q A that the terms Q would be used if A were the target structure, and the probability that Q would be used if A were not the target structure. The probability p Q A is considered as the product of all the probabilities p i A that each individual cue term i in Q would be used if A were the target. (The independence assumption here is explicitly acknow- ledged.) In our example: letting A be the structure ‘The US/UK war of 1812 began in 1812’, the probability that the terms ‘war’ and ‘1812’ would be used if this were the target of the search is presumably rather high. However, the probability that those terms would be used if it were not the target is not necessarily zero – the target might rather be ‘The French invasion of Rus- sia occurred in 1812’. Such probabilities will contribute to the final ranking given to all structures in the agent’s memory under this search. From his basic model, along with auxiliary assumptions along the way, Xxxxxxxx goes on to derive a number of retrodictions, relating to topics from the retention function to priming effects. Perhaps the most interesting of these are:

[ t ] ( ) ̂ Example 3.10 Assume the prices for a stock follow the lognormal model. The current price of the stock is 120. The stock pays continuous dividends at a rate of 2%, has an expected annual return of 16%, and has a volatility of 40%. The continuously compounded risk-free rate is 4%. Find the probability that the following options on this stock will be exercised.

  • Perception An action or behaviour can become harassment if the receiver perceives it as such, regardless of the intentions of the initiator.

  • Importance The Yampa River is the largest remaining essentially unregulated river in the Upper Colorado River Basin, and its inflow into the Green River, 65 miles downstream of Flaming Gorge Dam, ameliorates some effects of dam operation on river flow, sediment load, and temperature (Xxxx et al. 2000). Holden (1980) concluded that flows from the Yampa River, especially spring peak flows, were crucial to the maintenance of the Green River’s “large-river” characteristics and, therefore, very important to maintaining suitable conditions in the Green River downstream of the confluence. The Yampa River supports resident subadult and adult Colorado pikeminnow, contains one of the primary Colorado pikeminnow spawning areas in the Upper Basin and is a major producer of fish for the entire Green River subbasin (Xxxx and Xxxx 1989). A small population of humpback chub exists in the Yampa River in Dinosaur National Monument (Xxxx and Xxxx 1989; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1990a, 2002a). Spawning aggregations of adult razorback sucker were observed near the mouth of the Yampa River, and adult razorback sucker were captured upstream to the mouth of the Little Snake River (Xxxx and Xxxx 1989). The lower portion of the Yampa River was part of the historic range of bonytail and is associated with some of the most recent captures of this very rare fish. The Bonytail Recovery Plan (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1990b) identified the Yampa River within Dinosaur National Monument as a high priority recovery and/or restoration site. The Little Snake River provides approximately 28% of the Yampa River's flow and 60% of the Yampa River’s sediment supply. The sediment supply of the Little Snake River is believed to be important to the maintenance of backwater nursery areas utilized by young Colorado pikeminnow in the Green River (Xxxxx and Green 1991). Adult Colorado pikeminnow have been captured in the Little Snake River upstream to near Baggs, Wyoming, and humpback chub have been captured in the lower 10 miles of the Little Snake River (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 2002a, 2002c).

  • Profitability The Board reviewed detailed information regarding revenues received by XXXX under the Agreement. The Board considered the estimated costs to XXXX, and pre-tax profits realized by XXXX, from advising the DWS Funds, as well as estimates of the pre-tax profits attributable to managing the Fund in particular. The Board also received information regarding the estimated enterprise-wide profitability of DIMA and its affiliates with respect to all fund services in totality and by fund. The Board and the Fee Consultant reviewed XXXX’s methodology in allocating its costs to the management of the Fund. Based on the information provided, the Board concluded that the pre-tax profits realized by XXXX in connection with the management of the Fund were not unreasonable. The Board also reviewed certain publicly available information regarding the profitability of certain similar investment management firms. The Board noted that, while information regarding the profitability of such firms is limited (and in some cases is not necessarily prepared on a comparable basis), DIMA and its affiliates’ overall profitability with respect to the DWS Funds (after taking into account distribution and other services provided to the funds by XXXX and its affiliates) was lower than the overall profitability levels of most comparable firms for which such data was available. Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund and whether the Fund benefits from any economies of scale. The Board noted that the Fund’s investment management fee schedule includes fee breakpoints. The Board concluded that the Fund’s fee schedule represents an appropriate sharing between the Fund and DIMA of such economies of scale as may exist in the management of the Fund at current asset levels.
