In this paper we study the compression techniques for electrocardiogram (ECG) signals based on Block Sorting Techniques. We introduce a new and faster block transformation than the Burrows and Wheeler Transformation (BWT), and later compare them for ECG data compression. We show that our algorithm yields better compression gain than the Burrows and Wheeler’s algorithm (BWA), Gzip and the Shorte...

Brood size and other life-history traits of females affect male investment in mating. Female Uca tetragonon, producing relatively small broods, were attracted to the burrows of males for underground mating (UM) while carrying eggs. Most UM females released larvae and ovulated new broods during the pairing, averaging 3.9 days. While a female was incubating one brood, another brood was developing...

In 1994, Burrows and Wheeler [5] developed a data compression algorithm which performs significantly better than Lempel-Ziv based algorithms. Since then, a lot of work has been done in order to improve their algorithm, which is based on a reversible transformation of the input string, called BWT (the Burrows-Wheeler transformation). In this paper, we propose a compression scheme based on BWT, M...

This thesis examines two modifications of the Burrows-Wheeler compression algorithm. The effect of non-standard sort orders during the sorting phase of the Burrows-Wheeler transform is analyzed and a new method to find good sort orders developed and compared to previous work. The process is generalized to allow multiple sort orders in the transform and the reversibility in some cases is shown. ...

Die verlustfreie Datenkompression auf Grundlage der Burrows-Wheeler-Transformation ist in den letzten Jahren aufgrund Ihrer Effizienz und bemerkenswerten Eleganz auf ein großes Interesse gestoßen. Selbst einfache Implementierungen erreichen Geschwindigkeiten und Kompressionsraten von bekannten kommerziellen Pr ogrammen. Die Burrows-Wheeler-Transformation basiert auf einer Permutation von Eingab...

The mandate for will be maintain scientific standards, focus on international profile journal, explore creative ways engage with community digital 21st century. PAC ...

The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has two federal (Section 3) vertebrate pesticide registrations with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for gas cartridges to control damage to American agricultural resources and reduce threats to public health and safety. The gas cartridges are pyro-fumigant devices that produce primarily carbon ...

This paper reports on two case-studies of applying BAN logic to industrial strength security protocols. These studies demonstrate the flexibility of the BAN language, as it caters for the addition of appropriate constructs and rules. We argue that, although a semantical foundation of the formalism is lacking, BAN logic provides an intuitive and powerful technique for security analysis.

This report investigates two approaches for online pattern-matching in files compressed with the Burrows-Wheeler transform (Burrows & Wheeler 1994). The first is based on the Boyer-Moore pattern matching algorithm (Boyer & Moore 1977), and the second is based on binary search. The new methods use the special structure of the BurrowsWheeler transform to achieve efficient, robust pattern matching...
