Comment: Causal Inference Competitions: Where Should We Aim?

Should We Redesign Forecasting Competitions?

The M3-Competition continues to improve the design of forecasting competitions: It examines more series than any previous competition, improves error analyses and includes commercial forecasting programs as competitors. To judge where to go from here, I step back to look at the M-Competitions as a whole. I discuss the advantages of the M-Competitions in hopes that they will be retained, describ...

Target Atmospheric CO2: Where Should Humanity Aim?

Paleoclimate d ata show that climate sensitivity is ~3°C for doubled CO2, including only fast feedback processes. Equilibrium sensitivity, including slower surface albedo feedbacks, i s ~6°C for doubled CO 2 fo r the range o f cl imate states between glacial conditions and ice-free Antarctica. Decreasing CO2 was the main cause of a cooling trend that began 50 m illion yea rs a go, the pl anet b...

Verifying Security: Where We Are and Where We Should Go

Verification techniques are increasingly being applied to the area of computer security. However, they vary greatly in the tpyes of approaches and areas of security they investigate. In this paper, we attempt to systematize the current state of verification in security and provide guidance to where research effort could be most effectively be spent in the future.
