No full textNew trends in financing civil litigation in Europe: lessons to be learned
No full textIntroduction. Civil litigation serves a multitude of goals, many of which were explicitly
touched upon in the previous chapters. Civil litigation in the fi rst instance
is a way of resolving confl icts. Depending on the type of confl ict at hand,
the plaintiff for example may want the court to issue a declaration regarding
the unlawfulness of the defendant’s behaviour, or he may want the
defendant to restore the status quo ante, to refrain from further infringements,
to perform his contractual duties, to compensate his losses, or to
restitute illegitimate benefi ts. In essence, civil litigation is a way to realise
rights and entitlements, without having to resort to vigilantism.
In addition, civil litigation is a driving force behind legal development.
The continuous fl ow of cases forces (or maybe better: enables) courts
to fi nd new solutions for existing problems. An ever- changing society
is confronted with confl icts which legislators cannot all foresee ex ante.
However, the ex post character of civil litigation enables courts to seek
solutions to the arisen issues
Metadata Representations for Queryable ML Model Zoos
No full textMachine learning (ML) practitioners and organizations are building model zoos of pre-trained models, containing metadata describing properties of the ML models and datasets that are useful for reporting, auditing, reproducibility, and interpretability purposes. The metatada is currently not standardised; its expressivity is limited; and there is no interoperable way to store and query it. Consequently, model search, reuse, comparison, and composition are hindered. In this paper, we advocate for standardized ML model metadata representation and management, proposing a toolkit supported to help practitioners manage and query that metadata.Web Information SystemsHuman-Centred Artificial Intelligenc
A Manifesto of Nodalism
No full textThis paper proposes the notion of Nodalism as a means describing contemporary culture and of understanding my own creative practice in electronic music composition. It draws on theories and ideas from Kirby, Bauman, Bourriaud, Deleuze, Guatarri, and Gochenour, to demonstrate how networks of ideas or connectionist neural models of cognitive behaviour can be used to contextualize, understand and become a creative tool for the creation of contemporary electronic music
Optimizing ML Inference Queries Under Constraints
No full textThe proliferation of pre-trained ML models in public Web-based model zoos facilitates the engineering of ML pipelines to address complex inference queries over datasets and streams of unstructured content. Constructing optimal plan for a query is hard, especially when constraints (e.g. accuracy or execution time) must be taken into consideration, and the complexity of the inference query increases. To address this issue, we propose a method for optimizing ML inference queries that selects the most suitable ML models to use, as well as the order in which those models are executed. We formally define the constraint-based ML inference query optimization problem, formulate it as a Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) problem, and develop an optimizer that maximizes accuracy given constraints. This optimizer is capable of navigating a large search space to identify optimal query plans on various model zoos.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Web Information SystemsHuman-Centred Artificial Intelligenc
