Voting Power Derives from the Poll Distribution: Shedding Light on Contentious Issues of Weighted Votes and the Constitutional Treaty. ENEPRI Working Paper, No. 50, 6 February 2007 [PDF]

, 2007
Analysis of the Constitutional Treaty of the European Union shows that there is a serious discrepancy between the voting power gradient of Member States computed by the Shapley- Shubik and Banzhaf indices. Given the lack of compelling arguments to choose

Proximity and linkages among coalition participants: a new voting power measure applied to the International Monetary Fund [PDF]

Voting power methodology offers insights to understand coalition building in collective decision making. Using cooperative game theory, Banzhaf (1965) developed an index to capture the numerical importance of voters in coalition building.

Distilling 10-m Land Cover Maps From Multisource Consensus via AlphaEarth Embeddings and Noise-Aware Weak Supervision

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Accurate 10-m land use and land cover (LULC) maps are essential for environmental monitoring, yet their scalable generation is often constrained by the high cost of manual annotation and the systematic label noise present in existing global products.

A Probabilistic Visual Secret Sharing Scheme for Grayscale Images with Voting Strategy

, 2009
[[abstract]]In 2007, Wang et al. proposed two visual secret sharing schemes based on Boolean operations. One is a probabilistic (2, n) secret sharing (SS) scheme, called (2, n) ProbVSS scheme, for binary images and the other is a deterministic (n, n) SS ...

Policy convergence in a two-candidate probabilistic voting model

, 2014
We propose a generalization of the probabilistic voting model in twocandidate elections. We allow the candidates have general von Neumann–Morgenstern utility functions defined over the voting outcomes.
