| contents | Modern sampling methods create ensembles of district maps that score well on discrete compactness scores, whereas the Polsby-Popper and other shape-based scores remain highly relevant for building fair maps and litigating unfair ones. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we introduce population-weighted versions of shape-based scores and show a precise sense in which this interpolates between shape-based and discrete scores. Second, we introduce a modification of the ReCom sampling method that produces ensembles of maps with improved shape-based compactness scores. |
