论文摘要
我们引入了模拟的包装和破裂，作为评估党派捕捞措施的技术。我们将其应用于历史国会和立法选举，以评估四个措施：党派偏见，偏差，效率差距和平均米迪安差异。虽然效率差距以完全可预测的方式识别模拟的包装和破裂（这是从效率差距的定义立即遵循的事实），并且偏差在记录模拟的包装和破解方面做得很好，我们得出的结论是，其他两个措施都记录了很差。鉴于在异常分析中经常使用此类措施，这种缺陷尤其值得注意。
We introduce simulated packing and cracking as a technique for evaluating partisan-gerrymandering measures. We apply it to historical congressional and legislative elections to evaluate four measures: partisan bias, declination, efficiency gap, and mean-median difference. While the efficiency gap recognizes simulated packing and cracking in a completely predictable manner (a fact that follows immediately from the efficiency gap's definition) and the declination does a very good job of recording simulated packing and cracking, we conclude that both of the other two measures record it poorly. This deficiency is especially notable given the frequent use of such measures in outlier analyses.
