析侦查实验、搜查、辨认三种笔录的证据能力

立法上规定的刑事证据有七种表现形式,除此之外,还存在其他＂能够证明案件真实情况的事实＂,如侦查实验、搜查、辨认笔录等。因此这几种在司法实践中能够证明案件情况的笔录是否属于证据以及应当归属于何种证据是个需要迫待解决的问题。     

隐私权视野下的刑事搜查之限制

刑事搜查作为法定侦查行为,在实现收集犯罪证据、查获犯罪嫌疑人功能的同时,不可避免地涉及到公民个人的隐私。在我国侦查实践中,由于相关立法的缺失,刑事搜查行为侵害公民隐私权的现象屡有发生。在保护公民隐私权的视角下,探究对刑事搜查进行限制的法理依据,借鉴限制刑事搜查的域外立法经验,健全和完善我国的刑事搜查立法,具有重要的理论和现实意义。     

论不动产登记查询权主体及范围

物权法规定了不动产登记查询制度,但从保证正常适用、规范操作设计,可得行使查询权的主体范围、查询范围以及相应配套制度等等相关问题均须细致探讨,并最终合理确定各种细则,否则该权利将失去操作基础和适用空间。目前,就查询主体而言,立法规定为"权利人"和"利害关系人";就查询范围而言,立法尚未明确,众说纷纭。对此进行深入而有益的探究将有利于增强该制度的可操作性。     

对使用网络“人肉搜索”引擎的法学思考

“人肉搜索”。—-一个令人不寒而栗的名词,而“人肉搜索”这种网络活动,正在成为中国互联网的“亲宠”。“人肉搜索”的初衷大多是好的,一般都是为求助者提供帮助成为弱者打抱不平,但个别“人肉搜索”事件结局却酷似私刑,游走于暴力与道德的边缘,发人深省。应从“人肉搜索第一案”入手,对“人肉搜索”现象引起的法律问题进行探讨,并就该种现象的立法规制提出一些设想,以期对我国的立法完善有所裨益。     

Are Reemployment Services Effective? Experimental Evidence from the Great Recession

We examine an experimental‐design reemployment program implemented in Nevada during the Great Recession that required Unemployment Insurance (UI) recipients to: (1) undergo an eligibility review to confirm they were qualified for benefits and actively searching for work and, if deemed eligible, (2) receive job‐counseling services. Our results show that the program expedited participant exit from UI, produced UI savings that exceeded program costs, and improved participant employment outcomes. Analyses of program effects on the UI exit likelihood show that the program's effects are partly associated with increased participant exit up through the time when program activities were scheduled, reflecting voluntary exit of participants from UI to avoid program activities and disqualifications of participants who failed to meet eligibility requirements. In addition, the program induced substantial participant exit from UI in the period after participants fulfilled requirements and their interactions with the program had ended, suggesting that the job‐counseling services offered by the program may have helped participants to conduct more effective job searches. Our findings provide evidence that reemployment programs that combine an eligibility review with mandatory participation in job‐search services can be effective during recessions.     

The Dynamic Process Tracing Environment (DPTE) as a Tool for Studying Political Communication

The dynamic process tracing environment (DPTE) is a unique and flexible tool permitting researchers to study information search and decision making in various manners. This article describes the rationale behind the system, some history of how it has revolutionized the study of voter decision making in elections, and some of the principles of design within the system.     

关于指纹自动识别系统使用过程中的新思考

计算机指纹自动识别系统,是指以指纹自动处理为核心的指纹处理、管理、识别计算机系统,具有存储容量大、比对速度快、效率高、质量好、便于应用等诸多优越性。指纹自动比对系统不仅提高了速度,最主要的是提高了比中率。但系统的使用是离不开人的,其中捺印指纹入库质量、现场指纹入库特征标识准确性、系统的维护等工作都离不开技术人员,各个环节的技术员的综合能力的优劣,及对系统性能的熟悉程度,均直接影响到检索比对的结果。     

Predictive Soil Provenancing (PSP): An Innovative Forensic Soil Provenance Analysis Tool

Soil is a common evidence type used in forensic and intelligence operations. Where soil composition databases are lacking or inadequate, we propose to use publicly available soil attribute rasters to reduce forensic search areas. Soil attribute rasters, which have recently become widely available at high spatial resolutions, typically three arc‐seconds (~90 m), are predictive models of the distribution of soil properties (with confidence limits) derived from data mining the inter‐relationships between these properties and several environmental covariates. Each soil attribute raster is searched for pixels that satisfy the compositional conditions of the evidentiary soil sample (target value ± confidence limits). We show through an example that the search area for an evidentiary soil sample can be reduced to <10% of the original investigation area. This Predictive Soil Provenancing (PSP) approach is a transparent, reproducible, and objective method of efficiently and effectively reducing the likely provenance area of forensic soil samples.     

论专利申请人之现有技术披露义务

问题专利产生了严重的社会后果,提高专利授权质量具有迫切性。高质量的现有技术检索是提高专利授权质量的前提,这在专利申请数量巨大的背景下显得尤为重要。专利申请人及其代理人在专利审查过程中,应向专利审查部门依诚信原则披露其所知悉的、对申请案之可专利性具有关键性价值的参考资料。建立具有法律效力的现有技术披露义务符合专利制度的立法目的和利益平衡原则,节约现有技术检索的社会成本,从而保障专利审查中现有技术检索的质量。我国《专利法》第36条规定了该义务,但没有规定相应的法律后果。我国应通过立法和司法两方面来完善申请人的现有技术披露义务。
