An important role of normative economics is to provide an analytical framework to evaluate social states. Such an evaluation is based on value judgments derived from moral views of the members of the society. There exist three major approaches in normative ethics, which formalize many people’s moral views. These are consequentialism that focuses on consequences of actions such as utilitarianism...

Abstract. Seasonal forecasts have the potential to substantially improve water management particularly in water-scarce regions. However, global seasonal are usually not directly applicable as they provided at coarse spatial resolutions of best 36 km and suffer from model biases drifts. In this study, we therefore apply a bias-correction spatial-disaggregation (BCSD) approach precipitation, temp...

Diffusion Optical Tomography (DOT) is a non-invasive functional imaging modality that aims to image the optical properties of biological organs. The forward problem of the light propagation of DOT can be modelled as a diffusion process and is expressed as a differential diffusion equation with boundary conditions. This model can be considered as the form of a general large scale non-linear inve...

A detailed knowledge of the beam coupling impedance of the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) is required in order to operate this machine with a higher intensity for the foreseen Large Hadron Collider (LHC) luminosity upgrade. A large number of Beam Position Monitors (BPMs) is currently installed in the SPS, and this is why their contribution to the SPS impedance has to be assessed. This pape...

The World Health Organization is currently developing the 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11). ICD is the standard diagnostic classification used in health care all over the world. In contrast to previous ICD revisions that did not have a formal representation and were mainly available as printed books, ICD-11 uses OWL for the formal representation of its cont...

When sequences of discrete events, or other units, are independently coded by two coders using a set of mutually exclusive and exhaustive codes, but onset times are not preserved, it is often unclear how pairs of protocols should be aligned, yet such alignment is required before Cohen’s kappa, a common agreement statistic, can be computed. We describe a method—based on the Needleman and Wunsch ...
