Risk and career choice: evidence from Turkey
(Pergamon Press, 2010)In this paper, we examine the college major choice decision in a risk and return framework using university entrance exam data from Turkey. Specifically we focus on the choice between majors with low income risk such as ... -
Risk and return in a dynamic general equilibrium model
(Elsevier, 2000)In this paper we examine the relationship between risk and return on productive assets using the intertemporal general equilibrium model of Brock (1982, Asset Prices in a Production Economy, the University of Chicago Press, ... -
Risk as a forensic resource

Risk based facility location by using fault tree analysis in disaster management
(Elsevier Ltd, 2015)Determining the locations of facilities for prepositioning supplies to be used during a disaster is a strategic decision that directly affects the success of disaster response operations. Locating such facilities close to ... -
Risk estimation by maximizing area under receiver operating characteristics curve with application to cardiovascular surgery
(Bilkent University, 2010)Risks exist in many different domains; medical diagnoses, financial markets, fraud detection and insurance policies are some examples. Various risk measures and risk estimation systems have hitherto been proposed and ... -
Risk perceptions of instructor and candidate pilots regarding helicopter operations
(Bilkent University, 2002)This thesis investigates risk perceptions of instructor and candidate pilots. Incidents and flight scenarios concerning helicopter operations were given to participants to explore differences in risk perceptions. In ... -
Risk-averse ambulance redeployment via multi-armed bandits
(IEEE, 2018)Ambulance redeployment comprises the problem of deploying ambulances to certain locations in order to minimize the arrival times to possible calls and plays a significant role in improving a country's emergency medical ... -
A risk-averse approach for the planning of a hybrid renewable energy system
(Bilkent University, 2017-09)We propose a risk-averse two-stage stochastic programming for a hybrid renewable energy system planning problem, where we model the risk-aversion using Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR). The aim of this study is to find ... -
Risk-averse control of undiscounted transient Markov models
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2014)We use Markov risk measures to formulate a risk-averse version of the undiscounted total cost problem for a transient controlled Markov process. Using the new concept of a multikernel, we derive conditions for a system to ... -
Risk-averse multi-class support vector machines
(Bilkent University, 2018-12)A classification problem aims to identify the class of new observations based on the previous observations whose classes are known. It has many applications in a variety of disciplines such as medicine, finance and ... -
Risk-averse multi-stage mixed-integer stochastic programming problems
(Bilkent University, 2019-01-29)Risk-averse multi-stage mixed-integer stochastic programming problems form a class of extremely challenging problems since the problem size grows exponentially with the number of stages, they are non-convex due to ... -
Risk-averse optimization for managing inventory in closed-loop supply chains
(Bilkent University, 2016-08)This thesis examines a closed-loop multi-stage inventory problem with remanufacturing option. A random fraction of used products is returned by consumers to the manufacturer after a certain number of stages. But the ... -
Risk-averse stochastic orienteering problems
(Eskişehir Teknik Üniversitesi, 2019)In this study, we consider risk-averse orienteering problems with stochastic travel times or stochastic rewards. In risk-neutral orienteering problems, the objective is generally to maximize the expected total reward of ... -
Risk-based capital requirements for banks and international trade
(Oxford University Press, 2017)We test the trade finance channel of exports by controlling for the bank credit channel. Using Turkey’s July 2012 adoption of Basel II as a quasi-natural experiment, we examine whether shocks to trade financing costs affect ... -
Rites of passage and the liminal dead in medieval and reformation Britain
(Bilkent University, 2015-12)This study explores accounts of the liminal, returning dead in medieval and Reformation Britain through the anthropological schema of the Rites of Passage, identified by Van Gennep early in the twentieth century. These ... -

River: an intermediate language for stream processing
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Summary This paper presents both a calculus for stream processing, named Brooklet, and its realization as an intermediate language, named River. Because River is based on Brooklet, it has a formal semantics that enables ...
