A computable complexity measure analogous to computational depth is developed using the Lempel-Ziv compression algorithm. This complexity measure, which we call compression depth, is then applied to the computational output of cellular automata. We nd that compression depth captures the complexity found in Wolfram Class III celluar automata, and is in good agreement with his classi cation schem...

Minamata disease (MD), a methylmercury poisoning from fish and shellfish contaminated by Chisso Company waste discharge, was found in 1956. Small input neurons of the cerebral cortex in the fourth layer including somatic, visual, auditory, tasting, and olfactory areas are destroyed in MD. Several ten thousand people were suffered from MD in the polluted area. But socio-economical environment, d...

Assuming that k and Pk does not have p measure it is shown that BP k P k This implies that the following conditions hold if P does not have p measure i AM co AM is low for P Thus BPP and the graph isomor phism problem are low for P ii If P PH then NP does not have polynomial size circuits This research was supported in part by National Science Foundation Grant CCR with matching funds from Rockw...

Many seabirds die each year after exposure to petroleum hydrocarbons (Piatt and Lensink 1990; Khan and Ryan 1991). Crude oil, following ingestion, induces hemolytic anemia which occurs 4 to 5 d later (Leighton et al. 1983). A recent study reported the presence of hemosiderin in the liver of common murres (Uria aalge) at intervals up to 42 d after oil-contamination (Khan and Ryan 1991). Hemoside...
