This paper focuses on cover song identification among datasets potentially containing millions of songs. A compact representation of music contents plays an important role in large-scale analysis and retrieval. The proposed approach is based on high-level summarization of musical songs using chord profiles. Search is performed in two steps. In the first step, the Locality Sensitive Hashing (LHS...

We present a points-to analysis for C/C++ that recovers much of the available high-level structure information of types and objects, by applying two key techniques: (1) It records the type of each abstract object and, in cases when the type is not readily available, the analysis uses an allocation-site plus type abstraction to create multiple abstract objects per allocation site, so that each o...

Cardiac troponin is the preferred biomarker for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The recent development of a high-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) assay permits detection of very low levels of cTnT. Using the hs-cTnT assay improves the overall diagnostic accuracy in patients with suspected AMI, while a negative result also has a high negative predictive value. The gain ...
