    Abstract:

    This chapter will use the University of Notre Dame’s Marble (Museum, Archives, Rare Books, and Library Exploration platform) project as a useful framework for exploring some ethical cataloging concerns of biographical metadata as they relate to linked data in libraries, archives, and museums (LAM). During the development of this platform, extensive user testing revealed frequent requests for additional information about content creators. While a linked data solution could be deployed to enhan…

    Abstract:

    Modeling variable specific heat is a crucial aspect of aerospace engineering, playing a significant role in designing and analyzing high-enthalpy internal and external flows. Moreover, variable specific heat effects are becoming progressively more important with the increasing interest in hypersonic flight, where accurate temperature prediction is critical to determine chemical reaction rates and heat flux. Similarly, the influence of variable specific heat is significant in combustion, where…

    Abstract:

    Key elements of Jean Gerson’s account of jus show the distance between premodern and modern accounts of rights. The distinction between ‘subjective’ and ‘objective’ right has been overemphasized. Elements of Scotistic moral theology lie in the background of Gerson’s emphasis on jus as a faculty. Gerson’s own account of the relationship between jus and politics has been overlooked. His discussions of jus in the conciliar context are mixed, opposing the popes’ cl…

    Abstract:

    We investigate lifting projective representations in matrix Lie groups to unitary representations. After establishing preliminary notions, we discuss finite- and infinite-dimensional representations of matrix Lie groups, emphasizing the relationship between SU(2) and SO(3) and thus providing applications in quantum physics. The application of cohomological methods in studying the lifting of projective representations is then highlighted, along with the concept of one-dimensional central exten…

    Abstract:

    After the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) delivered more than $1.5 trillion in economic relief to low-income families during the pandemic, Capital Hill widened its policy window for more government assistance to go through the tax system. This memorandum identifies five factors policy advocates should consider as they work to expand new or existing anti-poverty programs (APPs) through the IRS. Each of these factors are responsible for the political sustainability of IRS-administered APPs like …

    Abstract:

    Older adults living with Alzheimer disease and other related dementias (ADRD) are especially vulnerable during disaster events because of their dependence on others during crises. Previous hurricane studies1-3 have found general increases in mortality after exposure. However, little is known about how mortality after hurricane exposure differs among older adults living with ADRD. Therefore, we examined mortality changes among older adults with ADRD exposed to major US hurricanes.

    Abstract:

    This paper clarifies why bias cannot be completely mitigated in Machine Learning (ML) and proposes an end-to-end methodology to translate the ethical principle of justice and fairness into the practice of ML development as an ongoing agreement with stakeholders. The pro-ethical iterative process presented in the paper aims to challenge asymmetric power dynamics in the fairness decision making within ML design and support ML development teams to identify, mitigate and monitor bias at each step…

    Abstract:

    When can Congress vest in administrative agencies or other non–Article III federal courts the power to adjudicate any of the nine types of “Cases” or “Controversies” listed in Article III of the United States Constitution? The core doctrine holds that Congress may employ non–Article III adjudicators in territorial courts, in military courts, and for decision of matters of public right. Scholars have criticized this so-called “public rights” doctrine as incoherent but have struggled to offer…

    Abstract:

    The criminalization of poverty has been widely denounced as a collective bias against the most vulnerable. NGOs and international organizations claim that the poor are blamed for their situation, are more often associated with criminal offenses than the wealthy strata of society and even incur criminal offenses simply as a result of being poor. While no evidence has been found in the literature that correlates poverty and overall criminality rates, this paper offers evidence of a collective b…

    Abstract:

    The deceleration of global poverty reduction in the last decades suggests that traditional redistribution policies are losing their effectiveness. Alternative ways to work towards the #1 United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (poverty eradication) are required. NGOs have insistingly denounced the criminalization of poverty, and the social science literature suggests that discrimination against the poor (a phenomenon known as aporophobia could constitute a brake to the fight against pove…

    Georgina Curto
    Abstract:

    Policies that seek to mitigate poverty by acting on equal opportunity have been found to aggravate discrimination against the poor (aporophobia), since individuals are made responsible for not progressing in the social hierarchy. Only a minority of the poor benefit from meritocracy in this era of growing inequality, generating resentment among those who seek to escape their needy situations by trying to climb up the ladder. Through the formulation and development of an agent-based social simu…

    Abstract:

    Among the myriad of technical approaches and abstract guidelines proposed to the topic of AI bias, there has been an urgent call to translate the principle of fairness into the operational AI reality with the involvement of social sciences specialists to analyze the context of specific types of bias, since there is not a generalizable solution. This article ofers an interdisciplinary contribution to the topic of AI and societal bias, in particular against the poor, providing a conceptual fram…
