Rising suns, fallen forts, and impudent immigrants: Race, power, and war in the Lower Mississippi Valley.
(2006)Their assumption became untenable when hundreds of Europeans and their African slaves moved into Natchez country. The resultant web of Indian, French, and African communities created a unique matrix for the production of ... -
Risk-based evaluation and management of cyber-physical-social systems during pandemic crisis
(2022-08)This research focuses on risk-based evaluation and management of cyber-physical-social systems during a pandemic crisis. The ongoing novel coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic has caused serious challenges for the world’s ... -
The Risks of Rhetoricity: Accounting for Intellectual Disability in the Rhetorical Tradition
(2023-08-04)I am troubled by the notion that what specialists in my field call “rhetoricity”—the quality of being able to assess an audience and effectively influence their thinking—is what separates humans (“rhetors”) from non-humans. ... -
Risky asset price expectation formation and emergent market behaviors.
(1998)We find several interesting and intriguing results. First, results from our computer simulations reveal that market behaviors which are otherwise treated as anomalies in standard asset pricing models emerge naturally in ... -
A RIVER OF CONTINUITY, TRIBUTARIES OF CHANGE: THE CHICKASAWS AND THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER, 1735-1795
(2015-12)This project examines the relationships between the Chickasaw Indians and the Mississippi River between 1735 and 1795. Chickasaws imagined, managed, and manipulated the river in a number of ways. For them, the Mississippi ... -

ROBUST DECISION-MAKING AND DYNAMIC RESILIENCE ESTIMATION FOR INTERDEPENDENT RISK ANALYSIS
(2012)When systems and subsystems are put under external shocks and duress, they suffer physical and economic collapse. The ability of the system components to recover and operate at new stable production levels characterizes ... -
Robust Optical Wireless Links over Turbulent Media using Diversity Solutions
(2011)Free-space optic (FSO) technology, i.e., optical wireless communication (OWC), is widely recognized as superior to radio frequency (RF) in many aspects. Visible and invisible optical wireless links solve first/last mile ... -
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 ... -
Robust Velocity Dealiasing for Weather Radar Based on Convolutional Neural Networks
(2023-05-12)Doppler weather radar is an essential tool for monitoring and warning of hazardous weather phenomena. In weather radar, achieving a longer aliasing range (ra) is crucial for surveillance, and a higher aliasing velocity ... -
Robust Weighted Kernel Logistic Regression in Imbalanced and Rare Events Data
