(2023-10-31)
Cotton contributes to a broad range of industries like textile, food, and healthcare industries. However, it is prone to different pests and diseases. One such is the cotton blue disease caused by the Cotton leafroll dwarf ...
A Cluster-Analytically Derived Typology of Juvenile Sex Offenders
(2008-08-15)
Juvenile sex offenders are part of a heterogeneous population and appear to differ on numerous variables such as offense and victim type, family background, sexual offending characteristics, and psychopathology. Several ...
Clustered Seismicity in Alabama: Natural or Anthropogenic?
(2017-07-27)
Seismicity in the central and eastern U.S. is typically characterized by low-magnitude earthquakes (M < 4) with a random distribution that occur in areas of low to moderate strain rates. An unprecedented increase in ...
Clustering and Predictive Modeling: An Ensemble Approach

Coaxial Probe for High Temperature Dielectric Characterization
(2010-07-06)
Wireless technologies have become an integral part in how we coexist on a daily basis. Specifically, the use of antenna systems plays a huge role in our daily lives. These antenna systems are largely used in some form for ...
Coefficient Space Properties and a Schur Algebra Generalization
(2005-12-15)
Let K be an infinite field and Gamma = GL_(n)(K). If we linearly extend the natural action of Gamma on the set E of n-dimensional column vectors over K to the group algebra KGamma, then E becomes a KGamma-module. We then ...
Cogent: A Coherence-Driven Cognitive Agent Modeling and Simulation Framework
(2018-04-16)
Agent based modeling is an effective methodology for understanding complex cognitive systems through generative mechanisms that explain emergent behavior. However, most agent modeling languages use general-purpose imperative ...
