The Concentration of Affluence in the United States, 1990
(Urban Affairs Review, 2002-03-01)
The author examines the concentration of affluent households in affluent neighborhoods in U.S. metropolitan areas in 1990. The rate of concentrated affluence, the percentage of affluent households living in affluent ...
Robust optimization in support-vector machines and applications.
(2002)
The main objective of this work is to investigate the robustness and stability of the behavior of the solutions of the Support Vector Machines model under bounded perturbations of the input data in the feature space. The ...
Tighter peak-to-peak performance bounds for piecewise linear systems with application to a class of semi-active control problems.
(2002)
The second major contribution is the development of a special method for determining the reachable sets for unit peak inputs associated with the six control cases of the 3-D semi-active control system. The tight bounds are ...
Privation and uncertainty in the small nursery of Peruvian laughing frogs: Larval ecology shapes the parental mating system.
(2002)
To determine how ecological factors of both offspring and adults can influence the adult mating system, I studied the parental care and mating behavior of the laughing frog, Osteocephalus planiceps. This species uses the ...
Adaptation during the Antelope Creek phase: A diet breadth and site catchment analysis of the subsistence strategy at the Two Sisters site.
(2002)
This study examines the subsistence strategies of the inhabitants of the Two Sisters site (34TX32), a Late Prehistoric period homestead of the Antelope Creek phase in the Oklahoma panhandle. Excavations in 1972 and 1973 ...
Self-control in a criminal sample: A comparison of sex offenders and non-sex offenders.
(2002)
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the criminal histories and analogous behaviors of three inmate samples (non-sex offenders, in-treatment sex offenders, and never treated sex offenders) would reflect the ...
Laboratory imaging of hydraulic fractures using microseismicity.
(2002)
Developing robust algorithms and software for locating the coordinates of hydraulic fracturing-induced microseismic events, and for simulating the first motion of the induced waveforms were central tasks for this research. ...
Experimental Product and Evaluation Program: Annual Report (FHWA-OK-02-01)
(2002-2)
This publication consists of a listing of experimental products that are being or have been evaluated by Th Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT), or other transportation agencies. This listing is continuously updated ...
The working draft sequence of the Gram-positive bacteria Bacillus stearothermophilus strain 10 genome, its analysis, and annotation.
(2002)
A whole-genome random shotgun (WGS) sequencing method was used to obtain the working draft sequence. To date, over 99 percent of this approximately 3.4 Mbp Bacillus stearothermophilus genome has been sequenced from ...
