The northeast Banda margin is affected by the arc-continent collision between Australian continental and arc. Unlike margin-parallel strike-slip faults in other subduction zones, margin-oblique Seram-Kumawa Shear Zone (SKSZ) has greatly deformed forearc with 80 km displacement along plate boundary. It trends ∼ WNW-ESE comprising Kawa shear zone (KSZ, >200 km) on Seram island Kumawa fault (KF, o...

The Cretaceous marine sedimentary record is characterized by time intervals rich in organic matter correlating with positive carbon isotope excursions, often called oceanic anoxic events. Weissert Event corresponds to the first such event during Valanginian stage. associated palaeoenvironmental perturbations, which include increasing surface water primary productivity, are hypothesized have bee...

Compared to binary logic, the multi-valued logic circuits provide very small chip size, higher speed, and small number of interconnections and simpler realization of logic functions. However, the main drawback of these circuits is the lower noise margin. The noise margin decreases as the radix of multi-valued system increases. Due to the low noise margins, it is necessary to restore or recover ...

We generalize Sauer’s Lemma to finite V C-dimension classes H of binary-valued functions on [n] = {1, . . . , n} which have a margin of at least N on every element in a sample S ⊆ [n] of cardinality l, where the margin μh(x) of h ∈ H on a point x ∈ [n] is defined as the largest non-negative integer a such that h is constant on the interval Ia(x) = [x− a, x+ a].

The nearest neighbor classification is a simple and yet effective technique for pattern recognition. Performance of this technique depends significantly on the distance function used to compute similarity between examples. Some techniques were developed to learn weights of features for changing the distance structure of samples in nearest neighbor classification. In this paper, we propose an ap...
