Effect of Mitigation Measures on the Spreading of COVID-19 in Hard-Hit States [PDF]
, 2020 State government-mandated social distancing measures have helped to slow down the growth of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Current predictive models of the development of COVID-19, especially after mitigation efforts, are largely based on ...

Governing carbon mitigation and climate change within local councils: a case study of Adelaide, South Australia [PDF]
, 2012 There is growing concern about climate change impacts on local government areas. In Australia, the federal carbon tax (from 1 July 2012) will also increase costs for local councils. This paper evaluates what carbon mitigation (i.e.

Towards Fairness in Visual Recognition: Effective Strategies for Bias Mitigation [PDF]
Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2019 Computer vision models learn to perform a task by capturing relevant statistics from training data. It has been shown that models learn spurious age, gender, and race correlations when trained for seemingly unrelated tasks like activity recognition or ...

Strategies for mitigation of climate change: a review
Environmental Chemistry Letters, 2020 Climate change is defined as the shift in climate patterns mainly caused by greenhouse gas emissions from natural systems and human activities. So far, anthropogenic activities have caused about 1.0 °C of global warming above the pre-industrial level and
