THE LAW COMMISSIONS – HOW WE CONSULT Topic of this consultation: In 2018, the Centre for Connected and Automated Vehicles (CCAV) asked the Law Commission of England and Wales and the Scottish Law Commission to examine options for regulating automated road vehicles. This is the third paper in that review. We make provisional proposals for a new regulatory system, examining the definition of “self-driving”; safety assurance before AVs are deployed on the road; and how to assure safety on an ongoing basis. We also consider user and fleet operator responsibilities, civil liability, criminal liability and access to data. Duration of the consultation: We invite responses from 18 December 2020 to 18 March 2021. Comments may be sent: Using an online form at: https://consult.justice.gov.uk/law-commission/automated-vehicles-regulatory-framework We have also produced a questionnaire in word format available on request. We are happy to accept comments in other formats. Please send your response: By email to [email protected] OR By post to Automated Vehicles Team, Law Commission, 1st Floor, Tower, 52 Queen Anne’s Gate, London, SW1H 9AG. If you send your comments by post, it would be helpful if, whenever possible, you could also send them by email. Availability of materials: The consultation paper is available on our websites at https://www.lawcom.gov.uk/project/automated-vehicles/ and https://www.scotlawcom.gov.uk/law-reform/law-reform-projects/joint-projects/automated- vehicles/ We are committed to providing accessible publications. If you require this consultation paper to be made available in a different format please email [email protected] or call 020 3334 0200. After the consultation: The responses to this consultation will inform the next stages of this project. We aim to produce a final report with recommendations by the end of 2021. Geographical scope: This consultation paper applies to the laws of England, Wales and Scotland. Consultation Principles: The Law Commission follows the Consultation Principles set out by the Cabinet Office. The Principles are available on the Cabinet Office website at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/consultation-principles-guidance. i Information provided to the Law Commissions: We aim to be transparent in our decision- making, and to explain the basis on which we have reached conclusions.

  • Classification Made Easy Class 1
    Classification Made Easy Class 1 (CP1) The most severely disabled athletes belong to this classification. These athletes are dependent on a power wheelchair or assistance for mobility. They have severe limitation in both the arms and the legs and have very poor trunk control. Sports Available: • Race Runner (RR1) – using the Race Runner frame to run, track events include 100m, 200m and 400m. • Boccia o Boccia Class 1 (BC1) – players who fit into this category can throw the ball onto the court or a CP2 Lower who chooses to push the ball with the foot. Each BC1 athlete has a sport assistant on court with them. o Boccia Class 3 (BC3) – players who fit into this category cannot throw the ball onto the court and have no sustained grasp or release action. They will use a “chute” or “ramp” with the help from their sport assistant to propel the ball. They may use head or arm pointers to hold and release the ball. Players with a impairment of a non cerebral origin, severely affecting all four limbs, are included in this class. Class 2 (CP2) These athletes have poor strength or control all limbs but are able to propel a wheelchair. Some Class 2 athletes can walk but can never run functionally. The class 2 athletes can throw a ball but demonstrates poor grasp and release. Sports Available: • Race Runner (RR2) - using the Race Runner frame to run, track events include 100m, 200m and 400m. • Boccia o Boccia Class 2 (BC2) – players can throw the ball into the court consistently and do not need on court assistance.

  • MAINT.Data: Modelling and Analysing Interval Data in R by A
    CONTRIBUTED RESEARCH ARTICLE 1 MAINT.Data: Modelling and Analysing Interval Data in R by A. Pedro Duarte Silva, Paula Brito, Peter Filzmoser and José G. Dias Abstract We present the CRAN R package MAINT.Data for the modelling and analysis of multivariate interval data, i.e., where units are described by variables whose values are intervals of IR, representing intrinsic variability. Parametric inference methodologies based on probabilistic models for interval variables have been developed, where each interval is represented by its midpoint and log-range, for which multivariate Normal and Skew-Normal distributions are assumed. The intrinsic nature of the interval variables leads to special structures of the variance-covariance matrix, which are represented by four different possible configurations. MAINT.Data implements the proposed methodologies in the S4 object system, introducing a specific data class for representing interval data. It includes functions and methods for modelling and analysing interval data, in particular maximum likelihood estimation, statistical tests for the different configurations, (M)ANOVA and Discriminant Analysis. For the Gaussian model, Model-based Clustering, robust estimation, outlier detection and Robust Discriminant Analysis are also available. Introduction In classical statistics and multivariate data analysis, the basic units under analysis are single individuals, described by numerical and/or categorical variables, each individual taking one single value for each variable. For instance, a specific football player may be described by his age, height, weight, goals marked, nationality; a specific passenger by his/her gender, age, destination, weight of luggage, etc. Data are organised in a data-array, where each cell (i, j) contains the value of variable j for individual i.
