We are developing new kinds of sensors and algorithms that can sense and begin to interpret information related to affect. Starting from the standpoint of value-sensitive design, which considers values such as calmness, autonomy, and informed consent, displays that adapt to affect can be ethically evaluated. The question of how adaptive technologies act on these values is of critical importance...

Recently, Cánovas et. al. [1] presented an interesting result: the argmin mapping of a linear semi-in nite program under canonical perturbations is calm if and only if some associated linear semi-in nite inequality system is calm. Using classical tools from parametric optimization, we show that the if-direction of this condition holds in a much more general framework of optimization models, whi...

Necessary and sufficient criteria for metric subregularity (or calmness) of set-valued mappings between general metric or Banach spaces are treated in the framework of the theory of error bounds for a special family of extended real-valued functions of two variables. A classification scheme for the general error bound and metric subregularity criteria is presented. The criteria are formulated i...
