According to John Rawls, there exists a perfect procedural justice for which there is no conflict between process and outcome. One such procedure is the Divide and Choose. Recently, the mathematical theory of fair-division extended this idea by developing procedures that offer fairer outcomes and a better guarantee of justice. Here, we tested the extent to which the distributive and procedural ...

We argue that the global digital divide, as measured by cross-national differences in Internet use, is the result of the economic, regulatory, and sociopolitical characteristics of countries and their evolution over time. We predict Internet use to increase with world-system status, privatization and competition in the telecommunications sector, democracy, and cosmopolitanism. Using data on 118...

Issues related to the gender digital divide have been prominent in discussions of the information society. However, the paucity of statistical data on the subject makes it difacult, if not impossible, to make the case for the inclusion of gender issues in ICT policies, plans, and strategies to policymakers, particularly those in developing countries. This paper surveys available gender ICT stat...

Significant problems of the criminal process are associated with fact that at legislative level, pre-trial proceedings and court in cases regulated same way. The predetermination “accusatory bias” arises from similarity structure current law to its Soviet predecessor. extension uniform principles legal various heterogeneous elements leads emasculation their meaning. It is proposed divide proced...

Permutative logic is a non-commutative conservative extension of linear logic suggested by some investigations on the topology of linear proofs. In order to syntactically reflect the fundamental topological structure of orientable surfaces with boundary, permutative sequents turn out to be shaped like q-permutations. Relaxation is the relation induced on q-permutations by the two structural rul...

An Internet learning environment was created to allow users to write studying notes in collaboration. Effective study procedure was incorporated into the system to promote collaboration among users. The procedure is as the follows: the members (1) preview learning materials and ask questions about the important information the materials contained, (2) discuss and divide the materials into a few...

Hyperparameter tuning and model selection are important steps in machine learning. Unfortunately, classical hyperparameter calibration procedures sensitive to outliers heavy-tailed data. In this work, we construct a procedure which can be seen as robust alternative cross-validation is based on median-of-means principle. Using procedure, also build an ensemble method which, trained with algorith...
