A central problem in number theory and algebraic geometry is the determination of the size of the group of rational points on the Jacobian of an algebraic curve over a finite field. This question also has applications to cryptography, since cryptographic systems based on algebraic curves generally require a Jacobian of non-smooth order in order to foil certain types of attacks. There a variety ...

Most populations now use hereditary surnames, and most societies have patrilineal surnames. This naming system is believed to have started almost 5000 years ago in China. According to legends and ancient history books, there were Eight Great Xings of High Antiquity that were the ancestors of most Chinese surnames today and are thought to be descended from the two legendary prehistoric Emperors ...

Automatic Audio Segmentation aims at extracting information about type of audio i.e. silence, clean speech or speech with noise, music etc. The aim of this thesis is to find and extract different features of audio, segment the audio and combine them to form single type of audio. In this work, the audio signal is initially decomposed into non-overlapping frames. Then these frames are decomposed ...

Identifying key elements of the ECG signal in modern day's diagnostic devices is crucial. Making a preliminary assessment of a patient during emergency situations, i.e. before arriving to the hospital, is starting to be a generally accepted practice in more and more countries. This article proposes a possible method of differentiating the T-wave from other features of the ECG signal based on th...
