Resilience as pathway diversity: Linking systems, individual and temporal perspectives on resilience [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Approaches to understanding resilience from psychology and sociology emphasise individuals' agency but obscure systemic factors. Approaches to understanding resilience stemming from ecology emphasise system dynamics such as feedbacks but obscure individuals.

Designing Adversarially Resilient Classifiers using Resilient Feature Engineering [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 We provide a methodology, resilient feature engineering, for creating adversarially resilient classifiers. According to existing work, adversarial attacks identify weakly correlated or non-predictive features learned by the classifier during training and design the adversarial noise to utilize these features.

Do we practice what we preach? The dissonance between resilience understanding and measurement [PDF]
Resilience is needed to make infrastructures fit for the future, but its operationalization is still lively discussed. Here, we identify three understandings of resilience from the existing literature: resilience as a process, an outcome, and a capacity.

On Coloring Resilient Graphs [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 We introduce a new notion of resilience for constraint satisfaction problems, with the goal of more precisely determining the boundary between NP-hardness and the existence of efficient algorithms for resilient instances. In particular, we study $r$-resiliently $k$-colorable graphs, which are those $k$-colorable graphs that remain $k$-colorable even ...

Lesson Plan - Habitat Fragmentation and Species Survival [PDF]
, 2021 Students will then consider a case study of a city that is planning for decreasing density. The ecological services model will be used to better understand the city’s approach to land use policies.

A value-focused thinking approach to measure community resilience [PDF]
arXivCommunity resilience refers to the ability to prepare for, absorb, recover from, and adapt to disruptive events, but specific definitions and measures for resilience can vary widely from researcher to researcher or from discipline to discipline. Community resilience is often measured using a set of indicators based on census, socioeconomic, and ...

Nature Sustainability, 2019 Resilience scholarship continues to inspire opaque discourse and competing frameworks often inconsistent with the complexity inherent in social-ecological systems. We contend that competing conceptualizations of resilience are reconcilable, and that the core theory is useful for navigating sustainability challenges.
