From Estimation to Discrimination: Algorithmic Bias, Predictive Uncertainty, and Anti‐Discrimination Law

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
Machine learning (ML) systems, increasingly deployed in high‐stakes decision‐making, inherently produce uncertain outputs that can lead to unlawful discrimination. This article provides the first legal analysis of how predictive uncertainty in ML systems interacts with UK anti‐discrimination law under the Equality Act 2010.

CENSUS UNDERCOUNTS, DIGITAL DISPLACEMENT, AND DATA JUSTICE: What Social Scientists and Data Users Need to Know About the 2020 US Census

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Census data are foundational to democracy, research and equitable urban policy. In addition to supporting political reapportionment and redistricting, census data serve as the backbone of the federal statistical data system and are often considered the highest quality data—the ‘gold standard'—for scholarly and policy research.

A computational analysis of lower bounds for big bucket production planning problems

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, we analyze a variety of approaches to obtain lower bounds for multi-level production planning problems with big bucket capacities, i.e., problems in which multiple items compete for the same resources.

BirdNET: Automated Detection for Monitoring Critically Endangered Lemurs from the Maromizaha Forest

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of integrating PAM with BirdNET, a convolutional neural network originally developed for avian vocalization detection, to monitor two critically endangered lemurs, Indri indri and Varecia variegata, in Madagascar's Maromizaha rainforest.

Radial basis function based meshless methods for fluid flow problems

open access: yes, 2006
This thesis is concerned with the development of meshless methods using radial basis functions for solving fluid flow problems. The advantage of meshless methods over traditional mesh-based methods is that they make use of a scattered set of collocation ...

Using large language models to analyze political texts through natural language understanding

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) offer scalable alternatives to human experts when analyzing political texts for meaning, using natural language understanding (NLU). Qualitative NLU methods relying on human experts are severely limited by cost and scalability.

Modelling Patterns of Past Inundation Processes Combining Geoarchaeology and Morphometric Hydrological Analysis in the Shashe‐Limpopo Basin, South Africa

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverine and valley systems across the globe have been central to the development of past urban centres. By AD 900, the Shashe and Limpopo Rivers seem to have facilitated the interaction and integration of early farming communities in southern Africa. This paper focuses on the application of geoarchaeological perspectives made available by the
