Latent Twins Open
Over the past decade, scientific machine learning has transformed the development of mathematical and computational frameworks for analyzing, modeling, and predicting complex systems. From inverse problems to numerical PDEs, dynamical syst…

NatADiff: Adversarial Boundary Guidance for Natural Adversarial Diffusion Open
Adversarial samples exploit irregularities in the manifold ``learned'' by deep learning models to cause misclassifications. The study of these adversarial samples provides insight into the features a model uses to classify inputs, which ca…

Trust Miscalibration Is Sometimes Necessary: An Empirical Study and a Computational Model Open
The literature on trust seems to have reached a consensus that appropriately calibrated trust in humans or machines is highly desirable; miscalibrated (i.e., over- or under-) trust has been thought to only have negative consequences (i.e.,…

Was Bivens Necessary Open
Some federal common-law skeptics have provided criteria for keeping federal common law in check. Although not specifically addressing Bivensactions, Professor Nelson has argued that when engaged in federal common lawmaking, federal courts …

Inmate Constitutional Claims and the Scienter Requirement Open
Scholars have criticized requirements that inmates prove malice or deliberate indifference to establish constitutional claims against corrections officials. The Eighth Amendment currently requires convicted prisoners to show that a prison …

Trust Discounting in the Multi-Arm Trust Game Open
Social interactions are complex and constantly changing decision making environments. Prior research (Mayer, Davis, & Schoorman, 1995) has found that people use their trust in others as a criterion for decision making during social interac…

Toward a Unified Theory of Learned Trust in Interpersonal and Human-Machine Interactions Open
A proposal for a unified theory of learned trust implemented in a cognitive architecture is presented. The theory is instantiated as a computational cognitive model of learned trust that integrates several seemingly unrelated categories of…

Reining-In State Standing Open
In upholding standing in Massachusetts v. EPA, Justice Stevens said that states “are not normal litigants for the purposes of invoking federal jurisdiction.” While one might agree that the states are not normal litigants, that abnormality …

Judicial Federalism under Marshall and Taney Open
The Supreme Court during the Chief Justiceship of John Marshall (1801–35) is associated with endorsement of broad regulatory powers in Congress and broad federal question jurisdiction in the federal courts under Article III. By contrast, t…

Cognitive Model of Trust Dynamics Predicts Human Behavior within and between Two Games of Strategic Interaction with Computerized Confederate Agents Open
When playing games of strategic interaction, such as iterated Prisoner's Dilemma and iterated Chicken Game, people exhibit specific within-game learning (e.g., learning a game's optimal outcome) as well as transfer of learning between game…

Model Predictions for Game-specific and Player-Specific Knowledge Drive Transfer of Learning Between Games of Strategic Interaction Open
In this document, we present all of the model predictions for an upcoming study to be to run in the Spring of 216. During this experiment, participants will sequentially play two games of strategic interaction for 50 rounds in one of four …
