Mount Azuma
is an active stratovolcano in Fukushima prefecture, Japan. It has a conical-shaped crater and as the name "Kofuji" (small Mount Fuji) suggests, the shape of Mount Azuma is like that of Mount Fuji. Mount Azuma's appealing symmetrical crater and the nearby fumarolic area with its many onsen have made it a popular tourist destination. The Bandai-Azuma Skyline passes just below the crater, allowing visitors to drive to within walking distance of the crater and other various hiking trails on the mountain. There is also a visitor center along the roadway near the crater, where a collection of eateries, facilities, a parking lot, and a stop for buses from Fukushima Station are located. The Azuma volcanic group contains several volcanic lakes, including Goshiki-numa, the 'Five Colored Lakes'. Each Spring, as the snow melts away, a white rabbit appears on the side of Mount Azuma. The melting snow shaped like a rabbit is known as the 'seeding rabbit' and signals to the people of Fuk ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Japanese Ironclad Kōtetsu
, later renamed , was the first ironclad warship of the Imperial Japanese Navy. She was designed as an armored ram for service in shallow waters, but also carried three guns. The ship was built in Bordeaux, France, for the Confederate States Navy under the cover name ''Sphinx'', but was sold to Denmark after sales of warships by French builders to the Confederacy was forbidden in 1863. The Danes refused to accept the ship and sold her to the Confederates which commissioned her as CSS ''Stonewall'' in 1865. The ship did not reach Confederate waters before the end of the American Civil War in April and was turned over to the United States. The Tokugawa shogunate of Japan bought her from the United States in 1867 and renamed her ''Kōtetsu'', but delivery was held up by the Americans until after the Imperial faction had established control over most of the country. She was finally delivered in March 1869 to the new government and had a decisive role in the Naval Battle of Hakoda ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Azuma's Inequality
In probability theory, the Azuma–Hoeffding inequality (named after Kazuoki Azuma and Wassily Hoeffding) gives a concentration inequality, concentration result for the values of martingale (probability theory), martingales that have bounded differences. Suppose \ is a Martingale (probability theory), martingale (or Martingale_(probability_theory)#Submartingales.2C_supermartingales.2C_and_relationship_to_harmonic_functions, super-martingale) and :, X_k - X_, \leq c_k, \, almost surely. Then for all positive integers ''N'' and all positive real number, reals ''\epsilon'', :\text(X_N - X_0 \geq \epsilon) \leq \exp\left ( \right). And symmetrically (when ''X''''k'' is a sub-martingale): :\text(X_N - X_0 \leq -\epsilon) \leq \exp\left ( \right). If ''X'' is a martingale, using both inequalities above and applying the union bound allows one to obtain a two-sided bound: :\text(, X_N - X_0, \geq \epsilon) \leq 2\exp\left ( \right). Proof The proof shares similar idea of the pr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
British Rail Class 800
The British Rail Class 800 ''Intercity Express Train'' or ''Azuma'' is a type of bi-mode multiple unit train built by Hitachi Rail for Great Western Railway and London North Eastern Railway. The type uses electric motors powered from overhead electric wires for traction, but also has diesel generators to enable trains to operate on unelectrified track. It is a part of the Hitachi AT300 product family. The Class 800 was produced under the Intercity Express Programme (IEP) as a replacement for the Intercity 125 and Intercity 225 fleets of high speed trains. The trains were manufactured by Hitachi between 2014 and 2018, assembly being performed at the Hitachi Newton Aycliffe facility, alongside the related Class 801, from bodyshells shipped from the Kasado plant in Japan; no body construction takes place in the UK. As well as resembling the Class 801, the units are also very similar to the Class 802 units, which have uprated diesel engines and larger fuel tanks. The respectiv ...
