The output vector y is a proportional split (→ProportionalSplitFactors) of the single input u, which may be a rate or simply an available amount of entities.
Notes
- The allocation or split does not account for capacity or demand restrictions, so that the allocated amount may be higher than feasible. If this is not intended, the more general
Allocationpolicy component should be used. - If the priorities are given in the form p_i = exp( f(attributes_i) ) this component can be used to obtain a Logit type of choice model.
