Steganography has been practiced since ancient times. Many Linguistic Steganography (popularly known as Text based Steganography) algorithms have been proposed like Word Spacing, Substitution, Adjectives, Text Rotation, Mixed Case Font etc.. Information Hiding effectively means that the method/technique should be Robust, Secure and have good Embedding capacity. Measure of Similarity between cov...

A variant of the multi-armed bandit problem was recently introduced by Dimitriu, Tetali and Winkler. For this model (and a mild generalization) we propose faster algorithms to compute the Gittins index. The indexability of such models follows from earlier work of Nash on generalized bandits.

Abstract—In this study, the static behavior of super elliptical Winkler plate is analyzed by applying the double side approach method. The lack of information about super elliptical Winkler plates is the motivation of this study and we use the double side approach method to solve this problem because of its superior ability on efficiently treating problems with complex boundary shape. The doubl...

It seems that Nietzsche was a brilliant thinker and person characterized by perceptions. He wrote acted very unconventionally. often moved between the trivial beautiful—the foolish good behavior, fiction reality, lies truth, kitsch avant-garde” (Buddensieg). embraces tombstones in Genoa, or Turin, horse. I discovered him as conceptual artist before art born. In my opinion, his thoughts, comment...

In this paper, the buckling of non-homogeneous isotropic truncated conical shells under uniform lateral pressure and resting on a Winkler foundation is investigated. The basic relations and governing equations have been obtained for non-homogeneous truncated conical shells. The critical uniform lateral pressures of non-homogeneous isotropic truncated conical shells with or without a Winkler fou...

It has been observed from previous large earthquakes that weakening the structural foundation can reduce damage of structure itself by allowing a rocking motion to release seismic energy, and this design philosophy is gradually applied new constructions. In paper, simplified model process rigid block proposed, equation derived, parameter analysis carried out. was found height–width ratio dampin...

Little is known about the ground-dwelling arthropod diversity in tropical montane cloud forests (TMCF). Due to unique habitat conditions in TMCFs with continuously wet substrates and a waterlogged forest floor along with the innate biases of the pitfall trap, Berlese funnel and Winkler extractor are certain to make it difficult to choose the most appropriate method to sample the ground-dwelling...

The Winkler extraction is one of the two fundamental sampling techniques of the standardized "Ants of the Leaf Litter" protocol, which aims to allow qualitative and quantitative comparisons of ant (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) assemblages. To achieve this objective, it is essential that the standard 48-hour extraction provides a reliable picture of the assemblages under study. Here, we tested to wh...
