使用$\sqrt{\varepsilon}$测试对第43号法案威斯康星州议会选区地图进行分析

An analysis of the Act 43 Wisconsin Assembly district map using the $\sqrt{\varepsilon}$ test

Maria Chikina, Alan Frieze, Wesley Pegden

摘要:

在以前的工作中[arXiv:1608.02014],我们在可逆马尔可夫链中开发了一个严格的离群值状态统计检验,并通过应用程序证明了其在宾夕法尼亚州国会选区中检测gerrymandering的用途。在这份说明中,我们将我们的测试,以目前(法案43)的威斯康星州议会选区,并发现选区确实是一个离群值之间的景观有效的选区威斯康星州。离群值状态在p=.0002和p=.0008之间是显著的,取决于假设。

英文摘要:

In previous work [arXiv:1608.02014], we developed a rigorous statistical test for outlier status in a reversible Markov Chain, and demonstrated its utilization with an application to detecting gerrymandering in Pennsylvania's Congressional districting. In this note, we apply our test to the current (Act 43) assembly districting of the state of Wisconsin, and find that the districting is indeed an outlier among the the landscape of valid districtings of Wisconsin. Outlier status is significant at betwee p=.0002 and p=.0008, depending on assumptions.
