The Insufficiency of Non-Domination
Political Theory, 2008This essay argues that the neo-Roman republican principle of “non-domination,” as developed in the recent work of Philip Pettit, cannot serve as a single over-arching political ideal, because it responds to only one of two important dimensions of concern about human agency.

Edges of mutually non-dominating sets
Proceedings of the 15th annual conference on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2013Multi-objective optimisation yields an estimated Pareto front of mutually non-dominating solutions, but with more than three objectives understanding the relationships between solutions is challenging. Natural solutions to use as landmarks are those lying near to the edges of the mutually non-dominating set.

How should freedom be characterized as a political ideal? This chapter explores one such view, commonly called “republican” or sometimes “neo-Roman,” which holds that the specific sort of freedom a well-ordered society ought to promote is freedom from domination. Recently, a number of new challenges to this view have been raised.

Dysprosody and the non-dominant hemisphere [PDF]
Language Sciences, 1985 Abstract Research carried out in the last two decennia has shown that right brain damage could disturb the production and reception of suprasegmentals. Dextrals with right hemispheric lesions may find it difficult to intone speech and/or to discriminate between various intonations or accentuations.

A continuum limit for non-dominated sorting
2014 Information Theory and Applications Workshop (ITA), 2014Non-dominated sorting is an important combinatorial problem in multi-objective optimization, which is ubiquitous in many fields of science and engineering. In this paper, we overview the results of some recent work by the authors on a continuum limit for non-dominated sorting.

The concept of non-domination is an important contribution to the study of freedom but it does not comprehend the whole of freedom. Insofar as domination requires a conscious capacity for control on the part of the dominant party, it fails to capture important threats to individual freedom that permeate many contemporary liberal democracies today. Much

A Comparison of Dominant and Non-Dominant Hand Strengths
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1999This study compares dominant and non-dominant hand strength in both right- and left-handed participants. Maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) of the first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscle, power grip strength and pulp-to-pulp pinch strength were assessed under carefully controlled conditions. No significant differences were observed between dominant and

We show that if $\hbox{cov}(M) =\kappa$ , where $\kappa$ is a regularcardinal such that 8$\forall\lambda < \kappa(2^\lambda\leq\kappa)$, then for every unbounded directed family $H$ of size $\kappa$ there is an ultralter $U_H$ such that the relativized Mathias forcing $M(U_H)$ preserves the unboundedness of $H$. This improves a result of M.

On the Structure of the Non-dominated Set for Bicriteria Programmes
Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, 1996Summary: In multiple-objective programming, a knowledge of the structure of the non-dominated set can aid in generating efficient solutions. We present new concepts which allow for a better understanding of the structure of the set of nondominated solutions for non-convex bicriteria programming problems. In particular, a means of determining whether or

This chapter explores how well the ideal of non-domination succeeds in ensuring the dignity and standing of the individual. It is argued that the way non-domination has been explicated by the leading republican scholar Philip Pettit is problematically ambiguous in two important respects (the precise meaning of ‘avowed or readily avowable interests ...
