Assigning ethical weights to clinical signs observed during toxicity testing.
Reducing the number of laboratory animals used and refining experimental procedures to enhance animal welfare are fundamental questions to be considered in connection with animal experimentation. Here, we explored the use of cardinal ethical weights for clinical signs and symptoms in rodents by conducting trade-off interviews with members of Swedish Animal Ethics Committees in order to derive s...
متن کاملAssigning Weights to Minimize the Covering Radius in the Plane
Given a set P of n points in the plane and a multiset W of k weights with k ≤ n, we assign each weight in W to a distinct point in P to minimize the maximum weighted distance from the weighted center of P to any point in P . In this paper, we give two algorithms which take O(kn log n) time and O(kn log k + kn log n) time, respectively. For a constant k, the second algorithm takes only O(n log n...
متن کاملPolynomial Weights or Generalized Geometric Weights: Yet Another Scheme for Assigning Credits to Multiple Authors
Devising a weight assignment policy for assigning credits to multiple authors of a manuscript is a challenging task. In this paper, we present a scheme for assigning credits to multiple authors that we call a polynomial weight assignment scheme. We compare our scheme with other schemes proposed in the literature.
متن کاملOn the Weights of Nations: Assigning Voting Weights in a Heterogeneous Union
We study indirect democracy in which countries, states, or districts each elect a representative who later votes at a union level on their behalf. We show that the voting rule that maximizes the total expected utility of all agents in the union involves assigning a weight to each district’s vote and then sticking with the status quo unless at least a threshold of weighted votes is cast for chan...
متن کاملPedigree association: assigning individual weights to pedigree members for genetic association analysis
OBJECTIVE Methods exist to appropriately perform association analyses in pedigrees. However, for genome-wide association analysis, these methods are computationally impractical. It is therefore important to determine alternate methods that can be efficiently used genome-wide. Here, we introduce a new algorithm that considers all relationships simultaneously in arbitrary-structured pedigrees and...
