arXiv:2603.06212v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Differential diagnosis among parkinsonian syndromes remains a clinical challenge due to overlapping motor symptoms and subtle gait abnormalities. Accurate differentiation is crucial for treatment planning and prognosis. While gait analysis is a well established approach...

arXiv:2603.06242v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model merging aims to integrate multiple task-adapted models into a unified model that preserves the knowledge of each task. In this paper, we identify that the key to this knowledge retention lies in maintaining the...

Most of it is tied to performance, including new stock incentives linked to Waymo and Wing, its drone delivery venture.

Boundary-conforming coordinate transformations are used widely to map a flow region onto a computational space in which a finite-difference solution to the differential flow conservation laws is carried out. This method entails difficulties with maintenance of global conservation and with...

“Hard cases make bad law” is one of the most famous aphorisms in Anglo-American law. Its insight is that when strict application of a generally sound law would impose a special hardship on someone, a court may be tempted to...

Abstract In the US context, critics of court use of algorithmic risk prediction algorithms have argued that COMPAS involves unfair machine bias because it generates higher false positive rates of predicted recidivism for black offenders than for white offenders. In...

Information theory provides a constructive criterion for setting up probability distributions on the basis of partial knowledge, and leads to a type of statistical inference which is called the maximum-entropy estimate. It is the least biased estimate possible on the...

This paper examines the evolution of legal personhood and explores whether historical precedents—from corporate personhood to environmental legal recognition—can inform frameworks for governing artificial intelligence (AI). By tracing the development of persona ficta in Roman law and subsequent expansions of...

New Deal Law and Order: How the War on Crime Built the Modern Liberal State. By Anthony Gregory. Harvard University Press. 2024. Pp. 473. $45. Introduction A vast body of scholarship situates itself in the…The postWhat’s Left of the New...

Abstract There is a broad consensus that artificial intelligence should contribute to the common good, but it is not clear what is meant by that. This paper discusses this issue and uses it as a lens for analysing what it...

Abstract The parameterized extinction data...

Advocates of algorithmic techniques like data mining argue that these techniques eliminate human biases from the decision-making process. But an algorithm is only as good as the data it works with. Data is frequently imperfect in ways that allow these...

Computational law has its limits—whether these come from the very nature of the law itself or from technical limitations. By reviewing these limits, two conclusions become clear: That interdisciplinary solutions are a must, and that only a subset of law...

American eviction proceedings are governed by a fusion of property and contract law. The law’s narrow understanding of eviction ignores the importance of a dwelling place to its occupants. Property is not merely land or a structure on that land;...

Risk assessments are conducted at a number of decision points in criminal procedure including in bail, sentencing and parole as well as in determining extended supervision and continuing detention orders of high-risk offenders. Such risk assessments have traditionally been the...

Algorithmic fairness has attracted significant attention in recent years, with many quantitative measures suggested for characterizing the fairness of different machine learning algorithms. Despite this interest, the robustness of those fairness measures with respect to an intentional adversarial attack has...

This article analyzes the challenges of regulating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the Brazilian judicial system, considering the constitutional, ethical, and normative principles that guide the use of technologies within the Judiciary. The research examines the normative evolution promoted by the...

Third-law gas-phase statistical entropies are computed for a variety of closed-shell singlet state species using standard formulae based upon canonical partition functions. Molecular parameters are determined ab initio, and sensitivity analyses are performed to determine expected accuracies. Several choices for...

The legal profession is facing an era of change driven by technological advancements, environmental crises, shifting client expectations, and evolving societal norms. This article argues that flexibility and resilience are not just positive personality traits but essential legal skills that...

Abstract In the initial instance involving artificial intelligence (AI)-generated images in China, the Beijing Internet Court determined that AI-generated images are considered protectable works, and the AI user is recognized as the author.
