Indanylation of <i>o</i>-Cresol with Indene

Comparisons of the IMO and IOI

There are several International olympiads for secondary school students, but the five which are most widely recognised are those in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and informatics, in approximate order of founding. Most of these were originally founded under the auspices of UNESCO. Of these, the discipline most closely related to Informatics is mathematics, and in fact in several count...

Simple Orthogonal Pitch with Ioi Symbolic Music Matching

In this submission we resurrect the Fanimae implementation of n-gram symbolic matching, as well as a second technique that combines alignment of pitch strings with inter-onset-interval string alignment — a technique that was shown to be marginally better than pitch matching alone for searching collections of polyphonic MIDI files.

The IOI is (not) a Science Olympiad

The International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI) aspires to be science olympiad alongside the international olympiads in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. We argue that, in its current format, the IOI fails to be scientific in an important way. Informatics as a discipline is well suited to a scientific approach and it offers numerous possibilities for competitions with a high scienti...
