The purpose of this workshop was: a) to develop recommendations for research topics in extreme event decision making that are suitable for funding by the Program on Decision Risk and Management Science (DRMS), and b)...
The Golden E-Book of Graphs of Mathematical Surfaces contains 7 chapters of math plots with more than 260 figures, most of them in surfaces in full color. The book is a visual feast of mathematical graphs with emphasis in showing math surfaces from different...
Formal approach to Relational Database Management Systems, compared the way they were covered during Web Applications. Database systems are discussed from the physical layer of B-trees and file servers to the abstract layer of relational design. Also includes alternative and generic approaches to database...
Focuses on modeling, quantification, and analysis of uncertainty by teaching random variables, simple random processes and their probability distributions, Markov processes, limit theorems, elements of statistical inference, and decision...
This set of notes was developed as a result of Higher Algebra courses the author taught at Kansas State University. The text covers Group Theory, Field and Galois Theory,...
This thesis deals mainly with the development of new learning algorithms and the study of the dynamics of neural networks. We develop a method for training feedback neural networks....
