We assume for this illustration that the size of the land plots is so great that the distance between dwellings is greater than the voice can carry and that most of the communication is between nearest neighbors only, as shown in Figure 2.

The numbers indicate the number of nearest neighbors.

It will be noted that point f has seven nearest neighbors, h and e have six, and p has only one, while the remaining points have intermediate numbers.

Its nearest neighbors are the French islands of Guadeloupe, some north, and Martinique, about south.

Maldives ' nearest neighbors are Sri Lanka and India, both of which have had cultural and economic ties with Maldives for centuries.

At the southern end of Tucana lies the Small Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy that is one of the nearest neighbors to the Milky Way galaxy at a distance of 210, 000 light-years.

Atoms have many nearest neighbors in contact, yet no long-range order is present .‎

Each atom has six nearest neighbors, with octahedral geometry.

The surrounding photoreceptors are the " nearest neighbors " to the centre and are multiplied by the-1 / 8 value.

The statistical formulation of the principle of locality is now seen to be a form of the Markov property in the broad sense ; nearest neighbors are now Markov blankets.

For a particle which has equal amplitude to move left and right, the Hermitian matrix H is zero except for nearest neighbors, where it has the value c. If the coefficient is everywhere constant, the condition that H is Hermitian demands that the amplitude to move to the left is the complex conjugate of the amplitude to move to the right.

It is found that they generally hold true in the case of bird flocking, but the long range attraction rule ( cohesion ) applies to the nearest 5-10 neighbors of the flocking bird and is independent of the distance of these neighbors from the bird.

At that time the nearest known neighbors were thirty miles away, forcing settlers and businesses to travel many miles by wagon for supplies.

His nearest neighbors were in Springfield, sixty miles to the east.

Brown contracted with the owners for the Haile improvements and an additional tract of land, and in March of that year moved his family in ; his nearest neighbors were ten miles away.

Because of its distance from the mainland, Tangier is very isolated, its nearest neighbors being other islands such as Smith Island, Maryland.

The data on which they are based is noisy ; the analysis can be confounded by horizontal gene transfer, hybridisation between species that were not nearest neighbors on the tree before hybridisation takes place, convergent evolution, and conserved sequences.

At a distance of about 200, 000 light-years, it is one of the Milky Way's nearest neighbors.

However, even at that time the anomalously low luminosity ( the absolute magnitude would have been 18. 5 ) and high uncertainty in the parallax suggested that it was in fact somewhat farther away, still one of the Sun's nearest neighbors but not nearly as high in the ranking in order of distance.

* spatial: KD-trees, nearest neighbors, distance functions

LLE also begins by finding a set of the nearest neighbors of each point.

Generally the data points are reconstructed from K nearest neighbors, as measured by Euclidean distance.

The southern coast of Labrador ( the nearest point of Labrador to Newfoundland ) and an area near the Labrador border, the Basse-Côte-Nord of Quebec, also use this form of speaking.

The general form of the TSP appears to have been first studied by mathematicians during the 1930s in Vienna and at Harvard, notably by Karl Menger, who defines the problem, considers the obvious brute-force algorithm, and observes the non-optimality of the nearest neighbour heuristic:

Her nearest Roman equivalent, Vesta, had similar functions as a divine personification of Rome's " public " and domestic hearths, including those of her colonies ; and Vesta's cults bound Romans together in the form of an extended family.

However, the callose and a phloem protein will be moved through the nearest sieve plate where they will form a plug.

Separated from the nearest church and school by the Monadnock hills, the residents successfully petitioned to form a new town in 1791, using the name " Greenfield " to highlight the area's level, fertile ground.

He founded Beebe's Corners, which in 1878 agreed to join with the two nearest neighboring communities of Ridgeway and Cooper Town to form the Village of Richmond.

Meteor showers are named after the nearest bright star with a Greek or Roman letter assigned that is close to the radiant position at the peak of the shower, whereby the declension of the Latin possessive form is replaced by " id " or " ids ".

An elaborated form of the Sunny 16 rule is to set shutter speed nearest to the reciprocal of the ISO film speed / setting and f-number according to this table:

Indeed, if anything, Pinot blanc may be the original human-selected form of Pinot, although given the genetic variability of this longstanding genetic line, thinking of Pinot as a familial cluster of grapes sharing a fundamental and common genetic core is almost certainly nearest the truth.

... great globes of light massing toward the opening, and not alone these, but the breaking apart of the nearest globes, and the protoplasmic flesh that flowed blackly outward to join together and form that eldritch, hideous horror from outer space, that spawn of the blankness of primal time, that tentacled amorphous monster which was the lurker at the threshold, whose mask was as a congeries of iridescent globes, the noxious Yog-Sothoth, who froths as primal slime in nuclear chaos beyond the nethermost outposts of space and time!

In Germany and other Western countries, where minimum wages exist for servers and where tipping is not culturally entrenched, most tips take the form of rounding up to the nearest whole or half denomination of currency when the server is cashing a party out at their table.

Until recently, all bridges on the network had at each end a small plaque showing the distance from the start of the highway, usually in the form of a number in kilometres, an oblique stroke, and a further number in kilometres, accurate to the nearest 10 metres.

Argilophilus and several other native genera form a close-knit group with nearest relatives apparently in Australia and Southeast Asia.

When entering SSA form, each use is rewritten to the nearest definition that dominates it.

and append each result in the respective order to form a new number ;( fraction answers should be rounded down to the nearest whole number ).

Not long after the south transept was completed and the two bays of the nave nearest the crossing rebuilt to their current form.

The general form of the diffusion equation is D = D < sub > 0 </ sub > exp ( E / KT ) where D < sub > 0 </ sub > has a dependence on both the attempted jump frequency and the number of nearest neighbor sites and the probability of the sites being vacant.

And at one point Caesar indicates that when the Eburones went into hiding, they not only dispersed into the Ardennes and morasses, but " those who were nearest the ocean concealed themselves in the islands which the tides usually form ".

The lead researcher of the UK study, molecular biologist Philippa Darbre, reported that the ester-bearing form of the parabens found in the tumors indicate that they came from something applied to the skin, such as an underarm deodorant, cream or body spray, and stated that the results helped to explain why up to 60 % of all breast tumors are found in just one-fifth of the breast-the upper-outer quadrant, nearest the underarm.

Nelson and Colne College is the main provider for post-16 education in the area – there is no grammar school or continuing sixth form centre, the nearest being in Burnley and Skipton.

Some ads would include special offers in the form of vouchers or barcodes, and some would utilize the device's GPS system to direct users to the nearest store carrying the advertised product.

Tram route 59, operating between Airport West and the city, Glenroy and Oak Park railway stations are the nearest form of rail-based public transport.

The village does not have a secondary school or college and the nearest high school is Great Sankey High School, which has a sixth form attached to it.
