Besides text and images, contemporary e-books can include multimedia, interactivity, pronunciation information text-to-speech ready content. The current EPUB 3 standard provides all the technical solutions necessary for designing displaying highly functional content rich e-books, but implementation is impaired by e-reader industry, publishers distributors. Local global book digitization has bee...

Minkowski in 1908 used space-like binary velocity-field of a medium, relative to an observer. Hestenes in 1974 introduced, within a Clifford algebra, an axiomatic binary relative velocity as a Minkowski bivector. We propose consider binary relative velocity as a traceless nilpotent endomorphism in an operator algebra. Any concept of a binary axiomatic relative velocity made possible the replace...

Historically, programming languages have been—benevolent—dictators: reducing all possible semantics to specific ones offered by a few built-in language constructs. Over the years, some programming languages have freed the programmers from the restrictions to use only built-in libraries, built-in data types, and builtin type-checking rules. Even though—arguably—such freedom could lead to anarchy...

We consider the problem of estimating the distribution underlying an observed sample of data. Instead of maximum likelihood, which maximizes the probability of the observed values, we propose a different estimate, the high-profile distribution, which maximizes the probability of the observed profile—the number of symbols appearing any given number of times. We determine the high-profile distrib...
