Weight Illusions and Weight Discrimination—a Revised Hypothesis

Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1970
The results of several experiments are reported most of which suggest that there is an optimum density for weight discrimination. This density corresponds to the “non-illusory” density, as determined by the density at which a visible weight is correctly matched with a hidden weight.

FairAW – Additive weighting without discrimination

Intelligent Data Analysis, 2023
With growing awareness of the societal impact of decision-making, fairness has become an important issue. More specifically, in many real-world situations, decision-makers can unintentionally discriminate a certain group of individuals based on either inherited or appropriated attributes, such as gender, age, race, or religion.

Weight discrimination, anticipated weight stigma, and disordered eating

Eating Behaviors, 2020
Weight discrimination is a well-established risk factor for disordered eating cognitions and behaviors. However, little is known about what may account for this association. Recent research suggests that anticipated weight stigma may explain the relationship between weight discrimination and non-eating disorder related health outcomes; the present ...

Weighted marginal discriminant analysis

Neural Computing and Applications, 2012
This paper proposes a novel nonparametric discriminant analysis criterion, named weighted marginal discriminant analysis (WMDA), whose purpose is to efficiently utilize the marginal information of sample distribution in the discriminant analysis. The local mean is calculated by using the data points near the margin with different weights.

Weight and Size Discrimination with Vibrotactile Feedback

2014 International Conference on Cyberworlds, 2014
Interaction is gradually moving from desktop computers to the open air thanks to depth sensors such as Kinect, Xtion and Leap Motion. In this new situation, in which the user is no longer holding any device, the simulation of the sense of touch is progressively gaining more interest. This paper describes how VITAKI, a VIbro Tactile prototyping tool Kit

Radial Distance Weighted Discrimination

2015
Motivated by the challenge of using DNA-seq data to identify viruses in human blood samples, we propose a novel classification algorithm called "Radial Distance Weighted Discrimination" (or Radial DWD). This classifier is designed for binary classification, assuming one class is surrounded by the other class in very diverse radial directions, which is ...

Perceptual weights in auditory level discrimination

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2003
Perceptual weights in level discrimination (also called intensity discrimination) were determined for 3-, 7-, 15-, and 24-component tone complexes with flat spectral envelopes using a correlational paradigm. Each frequency component was randomly and independently perturbed in level on each presentation.

The Unequal Weight of Discrimination

Social Problems, 2012
At present, most work examining the well-documented relationship between social inequality and body size treats fatness as an effect, caused either by some factor that determines weight and social class simultaneously, or by social class itself. However, the relationship between weight and social inequality is more complex than these explanations ...

Sparse discriminative feature weights learning

Neurocomputing, 2016
Sparse representation, a locality-based data representation method, leads to promising results in many scientific and engineering fields. Meanwhile in the study of feature selection, locality preserving is widely recognized as an effective measurement criterion.

Weight Discrimination in the Workplace

2019
Abstract Research investigating weight discrimination in employment settings has increased dramatically in recent years. Compared to the state of the literature when the first review was published (Roehling, 1999), there are now many more studies, conducted in an ever expanding range of countries, being published in a much wider range
