Sparse Matrix Reordering Techniques for High Speed Data Mining in XML

Sparse matrix reordering techniques play important roles in data mining on XML by automatically identifying similar XML element node names from the Document-term sparse matrix. Sparse matrix reordering techniques improve the searching time in the sparse matrix by reducing the envelope size and bandwidth of each Document-term matrix. It also has many application areas for both research and industry. Web intelligence based on XML is another important area thrust in Web technology. In this paper, the symbolic reordering and Fiedler reordering techniques are introduced and experimented. Experiment results shows that they both produced narrow banded Document-Term matrices for grouping and clustering data terms.

Techniques and Styles of Video Game Music

MarkN writes "Video game music has come to represent much more than just the beeps and boops of early video games that often got muted out of annoyance. It's a genre that stands on its own, stylistically and musically. It necessarily differs from typical soundtrack fare in a few important ways — it's written to accompany an activity rather than meant to be listened to passively, it is often required to loop and extend indefinitely, and it has the potential to be adaptive and respond to player feedback. In this article, I talk about some of the techniques used to make game music effective within its constraints and with all of its potential, and discuss how different styles and musical techniques can relate to the gameplay."

Sloan Foundation Supports Center's Work on Ethical Issues in Synthetic Biology

Synthetic biology takes genetic engineering techniques developed in the 1970s many steps forward. Those methods were largely confined to moving genes from one organism to another. Now, using techniques from molecular biology, computer science, and engineering, synthetic biology aims to create wholly new genetic recipes (and ingredients) that the older engineering simply could not cook up. More effective medicines, intelligent tumor-seeking bacteria, and cheap biofuels are just a few of the hoped-for applications—while new weapons of terror are one of the fears.
