research overview

  • Professor Bradley's research focuses on the analysis of time-series data from complex adaptive nonlinear systems. She uses a variety of approaches, ranging from the traditional ones from nonlinear dynamics (delay reconstruction, Lyapunov exponents, etc.) to information theory and topological data analysis.
