# Wavelet Tree

The Wavelet Tree is a succinct data structure to store strings in compressed space. It generalizes the $\mathbf {rank} _{q}$ and $\mathbf {select} _{q}$ operations defined on bitvectors to arbitrary alphabets.
Originally introduced to represent compressed suffix arrays, it has found application in several contexts. The tree is defined by recursively partitioning the alphabet into pairs of subsets; the leaves correspond to individual symbols of the alphabet, and at each node a bitvector stores whether a symbol of the string belongs to one subset or the other.
The name derives from an analogy with the wavelet transform for signals, which recursively decomposes a signal into low-frequency and high-frequency components.

## Properties

Let $\Sigma$ be a finite alphabet with $\sigma ={|\Sigma |}$. By using succinct dictionaries in the nodes, a string $s\in \Sigma ^{*}$ can be stored in ${|s|}H_{0}(s)+o({|s|}\log \sigma )$, where $H_{0}(s)$ is the order-0 empirical entropy of $s$.
If the tree is balanced, the operations $\mathbf {access}$, $\mathbf {rank} _{q}$, and $\mathbf {select} _{q}$ can be supported in $O(\log \sigma )$ time.

### Access operation

A wavelet tree contains a bitmap representation of a string. If we know the alphabet set, then the exact string can be inferred by tracking bits down the tree. To find the letter at ith position in the string :-
* "←" denotes assignment. For instance, "largest ← item" means that the value of largest changes to the value of item.
* "return" terminates the algorithm and outputs the following value.
In this context, the rank of a position $i$ in a bitvector $b$ is the number of ones that appear in the first $i$ positions of $b$. Because the rank can be calculated in O(1) by using succinct dictionaries, any S[i] in string S can be accessed in $O(\log \sigma )$ time, as long as the tree is balanced.

## Extensions

Several extensions to the basic structure have been presented in the literature. To reduce the height of the tree, multiary nodes can be used instead of binary. The data structure can be made dynamic, supporting insertions and deletions at arbitrary points of the string; this feature enables the implementation of dynamic FM-indexes. This can be further generalized, allowing the update operations to change the underlying alphabet: the Wavelet Trie exploits the trie structure on an alphabet of strings to enable dynamic tree modifications.

# 1st Independent Division of Sichuan Provincial Military District

Independent Division of Chengdu Military Region (Chinese: 成都军区独立师) was formed in August 1964 from Public Security Contingent of Sichuan province. The division was composed of four regiments (1st to 4th). (From May 1st 1955 to October 1969 Chengdu Military Region also acted as Sichuan Military Region.)
On January 22, 1968, the divisional commander, Du Ling (Chinese: 杜灵), was shot to death when he was travelling in his car in Chengdu, when he was trying to pass the barricade guarded by armed "rebels" (Chinese: 造反派), and his deputy commander Li Wen(Chinese: 李文) badly injured.
In September 1969 the division was renamed as 1st Independent Division of Chengdu Military Region (Chinese: 成都军区独立第1师).
In February 1970 the division was renamed as 1st Independent Division of Sichuan Provincial Military District (Chinese: 四川省军区独立第1师).
The division was disbanded in May 1976.
# 1st Independent Division of Guangxi Military District

Independent Division of Hunan Provincial Military District (Chinese: 湖南省军区独立师)(1st Formation) was formed in July 1966 from the Public Security Contingent of the Hunan province. The division was composed of three regiments (1st to 3rd) and two independent battalions.
In March 1969 the division (except for its independent battalions) moved to Guangxi and was renamed as Independent Division of Nanning (Chinese: 南宁独立师).
In October 1970 the division was renamed as 1st Independent Division of Guangxi Military District (Chinese: 广西军区独立第1师).
In January 1976 the division was disbanded.
# Tlawng

The Tlawng is a river of Mizoram, northeastern India. Its tributaries include the Tut, Teirei and the Ngashih. The city of Aizawl is situated to the east of the Tlawng river.
In 2012, a dam (Tlawng Dam) was proposed for the river.

## History

In 1890, when the British came to Mizoram, the Tlawng river was the main means of transportation from Silchar. Sairang on the river banks of Tlawng, is the nearest town from Aizawl (about 14 kilometres away). The journey of about 140 kilometres from Sairang to Silchar used to take about 15–30 days depending upon the season and water level on a flat water boat.

## Geography

The Tlawng River is one of the longest rivers in Mizoram, measuring 234 km in length (Distance) or 185.50 km net displacement (a straight line) (as of 23.9.2015) Between Zobawk village near Lunglei Town to Bairabi (Mizoram Border) It originates in Zopui Hill (Near Zobawk) some 8 kilometres (5 mi) east of Lunglei at an elevation of 1,395 metres (4,577 ft). After the confluence with Tut and Teirei River it eventually enters Cachar District. It is navigable by small boat up to Sairang.

# First Ward Park

First Ward Park is a 4.6 acre urban park in the First Ward neighborhood of Uptown Charlotte. After a national competition to attract architects, the firm Shadley Associates was selected to build the park. The park incorporates the existing Dixie's Tavern and UNCC buildings, and new construction will include an office tower, hotel, and parking deck on adjacent land.
The park is located at the corner of 7th and Brevard St, adjacent to ImaginOn and the Lynx light rail tracks. Completion of the park occurred on December 8, 2015 with a dedication ceremony followed by tours of the park. This marked the completion of a major park in each of Uptown Charlotte's four wards.

## Planning

Development of the First Ward Park and surrounding areas had been in planning for several decades by Daniel Levine, owner of Levine Properties, which holds 24 acres of land in First Ward.
Under a joint partnership between Levine Properties, UNC Charlotte, Mecklenburg County and the City of Charlotte, Levine will trade the park property with the county for an area of land along Brevard between 8th and 9th streets.
The First Ward Park was highlighted in the Charlotte 2020 Vision Plan adopted by the City Council in September 2011. The park is mentioned as the keystone of a "First Ward Village" that would include development of surrounding vacant lots. One of the key accomplishments of such a park would be "creating attractive, active spaces and focal points for each of [the Uptown] neighborhoods.
Developers and city officials were hoping that the park could serve as a catalyst similar to what happened after the construction of nearby Romare Bearden Park and BB&T Ballpark in the Third Ward of Uptown Charlotte, which spurred development of several apartment and office buildings.

## Surrounding Development
### Dixie's Tavern Building

Historical renovation of the Philip Carey building on 7th street (aka Dixie's Tavern) will turn the building into modern offices. In December, it was announced that the tenant for the Philip Carey building was Google Fiber- who will use the building as their regional HQ.

### Apartments and Parking Deck

As of October 2015, construction of an apartment complex and parking deck located roughly two blocks northeast of the park was on hold as Levine Properties waited for payment from UNC Charlotte, which is contributing $4.2 million to use 300 spaces in the 1,300-space deck. The apartment complex will have 264 units and wrap around the parking deck.

### Hotels

Hotel construction will likely occur before the office tower. The hotels will be a Canopy and Homewood Suites hotel, which are Hilton-owned brands. Construction could begin as early as 2016.

### Office Tower

An office tower is planned adjacent to the park at the corner of 9th Street and the light rail tracks. Search for an anchor tenant is still ongoing however, and construction won't start without one.
# Bartholomew Burton

Bartholomew Burton (c. 1695 – 1770) was a British financier, banker and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1759 to 1768. He was Governor of the Bank of England from 1760 to 1762.

## Early life

Burton, who was born in c. 1695, was the fourth son of Bartholomew Burton of North Luffenham, Rutland, and his second wife Susanna Gregory, daughter of George Gregory. He was the brother of William Burton who was also an MP.

## Career

Burton was a director of the Bank of England from 1746 to 1758 when he became Deputy Governor. He was brought into parliament at a time of financial crisis as Member of Parliament for Camelford at a by-election on 25 May 1759. He became Governor of the Bank of England in 1760. Burton's tenure as Governor occurred during the Bengal bubble (1757–1769). At the 1761 general election he was returned unopposed again as MP for Camelford. He decided not to stand at the 1768 general election.

## Personal life

Burton was thrice married. His first marriage was on 25 May 1729 to Hester Mansell. After her death, he married secondly on 2 September 1733, Philadelphia Herne, daughter of Nathaniel Herne, MP, and had one daughter. Before her death on 23 April 1762, they were the parents of one daughter:
* Sarah Burton (d. 1812), who married Vice-Adm. Sir Joshua Rowley, 1st Baronet, son of Arabella Dawson and Adm. Sir William Rowley, at St Stephen Coleman Street in 1759.
He married a third time to Elizabeth Marke (d. 1762), daughter of John Marke.
Burton died in May 1770.

### Descendants

Through his daughter Sarah, he was a grandfather of Sir William Rowley, 2nd Baronet (MP for Suffolk), Philadelphia Rowley (wife of Adm. Sir Charles Cotton, 5th Baronet), Adm. Bartholomew Rowley (Commander-in-Chief of the Jamaica Station), the Rev. Joshua Rowley, and Adm. Sir Charles Rowley, 1st Baronet.
# Jean de la Vallée

Jean de la Vallée (c. 1620 – 12 March 1696) was a Swedish architect.

## Biography

Born in France, he was the son of architect Simon de la Vallée (c. 1595–1642). He made early trips in France and Italy where he studied the new baroque forms of architecture. In 1637, he came to Sweden with his father Simon who was killed by a Swedish nobleman in 1642. The father had started the planning of the House of Knights in Stockholm, and in 1660 his son finished his father's work. Prior to this, Jean de la Vallée had planned two major churches in central Stockholm, Katarina kyrka in 1656 and Hedvig Eleonora Church in 1658.
In 1646, he received a royal scholarship for three years and began an international trip to study architecture. The journey went over the Netherlands to Paris where he arrived in August 1646. It continued to Italy and Rome, which he first left in the spring of 1650.
He also worked on the commission of many noblemen. For Magnus Gabriel de la Gardie he planned the remodeling of the Karlberg Castle in the capital. Other notable examples of his work are the castle of Skokloster, the Palace of Bonde (now the seat of the Supreme Court) and the remodeling of the Wrangel Palace (now the seat of Svea Hovrätt, the Svea Court of Appeal), both on Riddarholmen in central Stockholm.
In 1680 he was awarded the title "Royal and City Architect" and from 1680 to 1688 he was a state architect in Stockholm. In 1692 he was knighted.

## Personal life

In November 1654, he married Anna Maria Böös. His daughter, Margaret de la Vallée, was married to architect and master builder Mathias Spieler (c. 1640–1691). He died in Stockholm during 1696.

# Wavelet noise

Wavelet noise is an alternative to Perlin noise which reduces the problems of aliasing and detail loss that are encountered when Perlin noise is summed into a fractal.

## Algorithm detail

The basic algorithm for 2-dimensional wavelet noise is as follows:
* Create an image, $R$, filled with uniform white noise.
* Downsample $R$ to half-size to create $R^{\downarrow }$, then upsample it back up to full size to create $R^{\downarrow \uparrow }$.
* Subtract $R^{\downarrow \uparrow }$ from $R$ to create the end result, $N$.
This results in an image that contains all the information that cannot be represented at half-scale. From here, $N$ can be used similarly to Perlin noise to create fractal patterns.
