City Sampling for Citizens' Assemblies
In citizens' assemblies, a group of constituents is randomly selected to weigh in on policy issues. We study a two-stage sampling problem faced by practitioners in countries such as Germany, in which constituents' contact information is stored at a municipal level. As a result, practitioners can only select constituents from a bounded number of cities ex post, while ensuring equal selection probability for constituents ex ante. We develop several algorithms for this problem. Although minimizi…

#photography #feet #red

vertical format photo of a foot resting on a brick-red fabric, hit by direct sunlight coming from a window outside the top of the frame of the image, resulting in the foot casting a dark shadow on the red fabric, being surrounded by dark shadows, while also receiving some strong red reflected light from the fabric it is resting on, plus some intense glowing red sub-surface scattering in the toes at the border between light and shadow. to the right of the image but more in shadow a second foot i…
a similar view as in the previous image, but this time the format is horizontal, and the image is zooming in on the toes of the left foot
again a similar image, only now the foot has turned a but more towards the left side, changing the shadow pattern and overall catching more of the red reflected light from the fabric

IMA-Catcher: An IMpact-Aware Nonprehensile Catching Framework based on Combined Optimization and Learning
Robotic catching of flying objects typically generates high impact forces that might lead to task failure and potential hardware damages. This is accentuated when the object mass to robot payload ratio increases, given the strong inertial components characterizing this task. This paper aims to address this problem by proposing an implicitly impact-aware framework that accomplishes the catching task in both pre- and post-catching phases. In the first phase, a motion planner generates optimal tra…

Content warning: Green Party / Zack Polanski

Just caught up with Zack Polanski's "landslide" win. That's the most hopeful I've felt about UK politics in a while!
A while back, I watched a video of him being interviewed, and he seems like a no-nonsense kind of person.
"Zack Polanski has been elected leader of the Green Party of England and Wales by a landslide, signalling a clear shift to the left for the party.
"The London Assembly member beat Green MPs Adrian Ramsay and Ellie Chowns, who were standing on a joint ticket, by 20,411 votes to 3,705."

more wind splitting the seconds/begonias in dappled morning sunlight
#photography #bloomScrolling #begonia #orange

a deep orange red begonia flower in dappled sunlight coming from behind, mostly hitting the green leaves and less so the flower itself. in the background out of focus some blue-grey asphalt and green tree foliage
the same view as before, but this time the light is dappled slightly differently, catching more of the top part of the flower, giving it a color gradient from more yellow-orange where the sun hits it to more red-orange in the bottom, with a smooth gradation in between
again the same view as before, but now the sunlight is hitting the begonia flower straight in the middle from behind, giving its center an intense bright glow, contrasting with the more shadow-y background
again the same view with another variation on the dappled sunlight, this one bright but mellow

Incentivising Personalised Colorectal Cancer Screening: an Adversarial Risk Analysis Approach

Incentivising Personalised Colorectal Cancer Screening: an Adversarial Risk Analysis Approach
This paper presents a framework for incentivising colorectal cancer (CRC) screening programs from the perspective of policymakers and under the assumption that the citizens participating in the program have misaligned objectives. To do so, it leverages tools from adversarial risk analysis to propose an optimal incentive scheme under uncertainty. The work relies on previous work on modeling CRC risk and optimal screening strategies and provides use cases regarding individual and group-based opti…
