GIUSEPPE VERDI IN VICTORIAN LONDON by Massimo ZICARI

“…A review of such periodicals as The Times, The Musical Times, The Athenaeum has drawn attention to two particular aspects of relevance; Verdi’s first operas impinged upon the model represented by Rossini’s light-spirited melodiousness and provoked a sense of general bewilderment; even when opera-goers began to show clear signs of appreciation and to crowd the theatres where Verdi’s operas were performed, critics continued to object to their value and to ascribe their success to the singers’ new vocal and dramatic skills. …”

Efficient top-k string similarity query algorithms by Zi-yang CHEN, Yu-jun HAN, Xuan WANG, Jun-feng ZHOU

“…,given a query string σ and string set S,finding k similar strings to σ based on edit distance from S.Firstly,two adaptive filter strategies based on length-skip index are proposed,such that to reduce the times of edit distance computation between two strings.Then the lower bound of edit distance between query string and unmatched string set is proposed,such that to further reduce the times of edit dis-tance computation when processing strings that do not have common signatures with the query string.Finally efficient algorithms to return top-k similar strings are proposed.Experimental results on three real datasets verify the benefits over the state-of-the-art algorithm.…”

Low-complexity and frequency-offset-robust synchronization algorithm based on CAZAC sequence by Fengkui GONG, Ni WEN, Guo LI, Yang GAO

“…A low-complexity and frequency-offset-robust synchronization algorithm based on CAZAC sequence was proposed, which was suitable for burst OFDM systems.A new preamble sequence was constructed based on the CAZAC sequence, and its simplified timing metric function was derived by using the combination characteristics of the sequence, and then the delay correlation and symmetric correlation characteristics were used to achieve accurate and stable timing synchronization.Furthermore, based on the new constructed preamble sequence, a weighted frequency synchronization scheme combining cyclic prefix was proposed to obtain more accurate frequency offset estimation.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has good synchronization performance in both Gaussian channels and multipath fading channels regardless of frequency offset, and its computational complexity is lower than the most existing representative algorithms.…”
