Despite theoretical promise, debate as a scalable oversight protocol has produced mixed empirical results: gains in some settings, and null effects in others, especially when the judge does not have information hidden from it. We study…

We review the superiorization methodology, which can be thought of, in some cases, as lying between feasibility-seeking and constrained minimization. It is not quite trying to solve the full fledged constrained minimization problem; rather,…

Since the very beginning of the theory of linear logic it is known how to represent the $\lambda$-calculus as linear logic proof nets. The two systems however have different granularities, in particular proof nets have an explicit notion of…
