Abstract Six regional recharge and groundwater models have been recently developed of the Chalk Upper Greensand from Dorset to Kent. Updated stratigraphy mapping improved understanding geological structure development preferential flow pathways along hardground horizons. Where shallow dipping folds bring these into zone active flow, extensive ‘underdrainage’ may result in marked differences between surface catchments. Hardgrounds marls are also associated with spring discharges, as some...

Language model (LM) post-training (or alignment) involves maximizing a reward function that is derived from preference annotations. Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) popular offline alignment method trains policy directly on data without the need to train or apply reinforcement learning. However, typical datasets have only single, at most few, annotation per pair, which causes DPO overconfidently assign rewards trend towards infinite magnitude. This frequently leads degenerate policies,...

A prisoner in appropriate sense defined not by over actions (playing hawk or playing dove) but four possible outcomes which result from players' jointly (both both dove, first second vice versa). It inconsistent to suppose nevertheless play dove....
