Reflections on the optimal size of government [PDF]
, 2000 It is not always easy to see a common thread in Tullock's work: he is almost too fertile and throws off so many ideas in all directions that the connecting links between them threaten to disappear from view. Any simple summary of his 'system', therefore,

Pareto Optimal Coalitions of Fixed Size
Journal of Mechanism and Institution Design, 2019 We tackle the problem of partitioning players into groups of fixed size, such as allocating eligible students to shared dormitory rooms. Each student submits preferences over the other individual students.

Optimization with Uniform Size Queries [PDF]
Algorithmica, 2016 Let \(f\) be a nonnegative, monotone, submodular set function over an \(n\)-element set \(U\). A \textit{value query} to \(f\) is a set \(S \subseteq U\) and its \textit{reply} is the value \(f(S)\). The authors study the following computational problem: given a positive integer \(k\) and \(f\) as above which can only be accessed using value queries of

Optimal size of a complex network [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2003 We investigate the response behavior of an Ising system, driven by an oscillating field, on a small-world network, with particular attention to the effects of the system size. The responses of the magnetization to the driving field are probed by means of Monte Carlo dynamic simulations with the rewiring probability varied.

The Optimal Size of an Epistemic Congress
CoRR, 2021 We analyze the optimal size of a congress in a representative democracy. We take an epistemic view where voters decide on a binary issue with one ground truth outcome, and each voter votes correctly according to their competence levels in $[0, 1]$. Assuming that we can sample the best experts to form an epistemic congress, we find that the optimal ...

Optimizing fermentation process miscanthus-to-ethanol biorefinery scale under uncertain conditions
Environmental Research Letters, 2014 Ethanol produced from cellulosic feedstocks has garnered significant interest for greenhouse gas abatement and energy security promotion. One outstanding question in the development of a mature cellulosic ethanol industry is the optimal scale of ...

Optimal Feature Set Size in Random Forest Regression
Applied Sciences, 2021 One of the most important hyper-parameters in the Random Forest (RF) algorithm is the feature set size used to search for the best partitioning rule at each node of trees. Most existing research on feature set size has been done primarily with a focus on
