We defined rank categories based on relative usage of food items (0 - absent, 1 - complementary, 2 - predominant, 3 - strict), and a rank was attributed to each dietary item for each species (see Additional file 1).
I want to be part of how she navigates these differences and makes sense of her own "peach skin" in a world with very defined ranks and order for skin color.
This is partly a result of the attempt to present a modern (phylogenetic) interpretation of the land plant clade; rather than descriding vaguely defined ranked groups of plants, we concentrate on fairly well circumscribed, i.e. phylogentically meaningful plant taxa.
Both classes are dressed in code: those downstairs are in uniforms as flow-chart specific as those of the military, defining rank at a glance, while the costumes of the upstairs denizens emphasize narrative, history, and, if not creativity, artistry and taste.

The vast majority of all unique tags could be confidently assigned to a defined taxonomic rank, at least at class-level.
Here we define ranking games as a class of n-player normal-form games with a payoff structure reflecting the players' von Neumann Morgenstern preferences over their individual ranks.
For comparison of different rankings, we defined a rank deviation as significant if the rank order of the same intervention differed by two or more points on the ordinal scale.
After establishing the graphical representation of a chemical network for given pressure, temperature, and species concentrations, a metric BC is defined to rank the shortest paths passed by other nodes between the pair of source and target node, and as such captures the dominant indirect kinetic pathways between any pair of nodes in the network for computational diagnostics.
Given a set of expression data and a quantitative measure of coexpression, for each gene in the dataset we defined a Ranked Coexpression Group as the gene itself together with the k genes most closely coexpressed with it.
The first measure of performance we use is the normalized rank, defined as the rank of the native structure divided by the total number of structures in the decoy set.
