Community-Aware Group Testing

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Pavlos Nikolopoulos

Group testing is a technique that can reduce the number of tests needed to identify infected members in a population, by pooling together multiple diagnostic samples. Despite the variety and importance of prior results, traditional work on group testing ha ...

Specific Gestalt principles cannot explain (un)crowding

Michael Herzog, Oh-Hyeon Choung, Einat Rashal

The standard physiological model has serious problems accounting for many aspects of vision, particularly when stimulus configurations become slightly more complex than the ones classically used, e.g., configurations of Gabors rather than only one or a few ...

Testing two competing hypotheses for Eurasian jays' caching for the future

Johanni Michael Brea

Previous research reported that corvids preferentially cache food in a location where no food will be available or cache more of a specific food in a location where this food will not be available. Here, we consider possible explanations for these prospect ...

Group testing for connected communities

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Pavlos Nikolopoulos

In this paper, we propose algorithms that leverage a known community structure to make group testing more efficient. We consider a population organized in disjoint communities: each individual participates in a community, and its infection probability depe ...

Exploring policy change through agent-based simulation

Raphaël Klein

Policymaking is a complex process that has been studied using policy process theories almost exclusively. These theories have been built using a large number of qualitative cases. Such methods are useful for theory building but remain limited for theory ex ...

Measures against the abandonment of common property summer pastures: experimental evidence from joint appropriation-provision games

Ivo Philippe Baur

Common property summer pastures constitute longstanding evidence that the tragedy of the commons can be prevented through self-organization. As a byproduct of their sustainable governance, high nature value farming systems with well-integrated patchy lands ...

Testing of asymptomatic individuals for fast feedback-control of COVID-19 pandemic

Gabriel Aeppli

We argue that frequent sampling of the fraction ofa priorinon-symptomatic but infectious humans (either by random or cohort testing) significantly improves the management of the COVID-19 pandemic, when compared to intervention strategies relying on data fr ...
