Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

One of the costs of anticipated amnesties is current and future non-compliance with the law.Relatively to a no-amnesty situation, efficient enforcement policies may therefore differ when an amnesty is offered.To study this question, a model is built in which individuals impose a cost on society when they commit a crime.When a criminal participates in an amnesty, or (to a lesser extent) when he is caught, some fraction of the social cost is recovered, reflecting co-operation with the authorities.The analysis characterizes efficient anticipated amnesties.It is shown that the efficient level of enforcement may be smaller in the case of an anticipated amnesty than in a no-amnesty situation.The reason is that despite the increase in the initial number of criminals generated by the amnesty, many criminals eventually participate in it.If participants in the amnesty are very co-operative, then a large proportion of the social cost is recovered making the initial increase in the number of criminals less costly.The optimal level of the reduced sanction imposed on those who participate in the amnesty is also characterized.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
