Seismic tomography revealed a low seismic velocity (-5%) and high Poisson's ratio (+6%) anomaly covering about 300 square kilometers at the hypocenter of the 17 January 1995, magnitude 7.2, Kobe earthquake in Japan. This anomaly may be due to an overpressurized, fluid-filled, fractured rock matrix that contributed to the initiation of the Kobe earthquake.

Binary fingerprinting codes with a length of theoretically minimum order were proposed by Tardos, and the traceability has been estimated under the well-known marking assumption. In this paper, we estimate the traceability and the false-positive probability of the fingerprinting code over AWGN channel, and propose a new accusation algorithm to catch more colluders with less innocent users. The ...
