Following the successes of the First (June 23-26, 2013) and Second (August 2-5, 2015) Conference on Validating Models of Adversary Behavior, Buffalo/Niagara Falls, NY, and the First Conference on Risk Analysis, Decision Analysis and Security, in Beijing, China, July 21-23, 2017, we are organizing the Second Conference on Risk Analysis, Decision Analysis, and Security in Buffalo/Niagara Falls, NY, USA, July 30 - August 2, 2019. The 2019 conference will focus on the theme “Risk Analysis in the Digital Era.” We are also organizing a special issue of the journal Risk Analysis on the same topic.

This conference/special issue seeks submissions that conduct cutting-edge research on the rich possibilities of harnessing high-volume, high-dimensional, multi-source, and/or multi-modal data to give insights for risk assessment, risk communication, and risk management. We also welcome perspective papers discussing the scope and limitations of big data risk analytics, including managing extreme events, causality vs. correlation, and privacy, legal and ethical issues. Key areas of focus include, but are not limited to:

•       Adversarial behavior analytics in homeland security

•       Data-driven food safety analytics

•       Aviation risk analytics with flight recorded data

•       Risk analytics in humanitarian logistics
