Erasure (duo)
Erasure ( ) are an English synth-pop duo formed in London in 1985, consisting of lead vocalist and songwriter Andy Bell (singer), Andy Bell and songwriter, producer and keyboardist Vince Clarke, previously co-founder of the band Depeche Mode and a member of synth-pop duo Yazoo (band), Yazoo. From their fourth single, "Sometimes (Erasure song), Sometimes" (1986), Erasure established themselves on the UK Singles Chart, becoming one of the most successful acts of the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s. From 1986 to 2007, the pair achieved 24 consecutive top-40 entries in the UK singles chart. By 2009, 34 of their 37 chart-eligible singles and EPs had made the UK top 40, including 17 climbing into the top 10. At the 9th Brit Awards, 1989 Brit Awards, Erasure won the Brit Awards, Brit Award for Brit Award for British Group, Best British Group. Erasure made their debut with the studio album ''Wonderland (Erasure album), Wonderland'' in 1986, although it did not perform well chart-wise. With ...

Erasure (album)
''Erasure'' is the seventh studio album by English synth-pop duo Erasure, released on 23 October 1995 by Mute Records. It was produced by Thomas Fehlmann (of the Orb) and Gareth Jones. An overtly experimental and introspective album, ''Erasure'' contains 11 mostly mid-tempo tracks that differed from their past output of shiny, three-minute pop songs. Most tracks clock in at five minutes or more, several contain long synth interludes, and guest artists include the London Community Gospel Choir and performance artist Diamanda Galás. Although appreciated for its experimental nature, ''Erasure'' marked the beginning of Erasure's slide from the peak of their popularity in the mainstream music world. Coming off four consecutive number-one albums in the UK, this album failed to hit the top 10, and two single releases also missed the UK top ten. After a successful top 20 debut on the ''Billboard'' 200 for their previous album '' I Say I Say I Say'', ''Erasure'' debuted and peaked at ...

Erasure Code
In coding theory, an erasure code is a forward error correction (FEC) code under the assumption of bit erasures (rather than bit errors), which transforms a message of ''k'' symbols into a longer message (code word) with ''n'' symbols such that the original message can be recovered from a subset of the ''n'' symbols. The fraction ''r'' = ''k''/''n'' is called the code rate. The fraction ''k’/k'', where ''k’'' denotes the number of symbols required for recovery, is called reception efficiency. The recovery algorithm expects that it is known which of the ''n'' symbols are lost. History Erasure coding was invented by Irving Reed and Gustave Solomon in 1960. There are many different erasure coding schemes. The most popular erasure codes are Reed-Solomon coding, Low-density parity-check code (LDPC codes), and Turbo codes. As of 2023, modern data storage systems can be designed to tolerate the complete failure of a few disks without data loss, using one of 3 ...

Erasure (novel)
''Erasure'' is a 2001 novel by American writer Percival Everett. It was originally published by the University Press of New England. The novel satirizes the dominant strains of discussion related to the publication and reception of African-American literature, and was later adapted by Cord Jefferson into a film titled ''American Fiction'', starring Jeffrey Wright. Plot ''Erasure''s protagonist, Thelonious "Monk" Ellison, a professor of English literature and novelist, is in a rut. He writes novels that are highly academic and philosophical, often with reference to Greek mythology and literary theory. The book establishes itself during a trip to Washington, DC, where Ellison presents a paper to a literary society. During the visit, he witnesses his aging mother, now cared for full-time by his sister, suffering from declining memory and health issues. Ellison struggles to get his books published because, as his agent repeatedly explains to him, publishing houses do not believe h ...

Erasure Poetry
Erasure poetry, or blackout poetry, is a form of found poetry or found object art created by erasing words from an existing text in prose or Poetry, verse and framing the result on the page as a poem. The results can be allowed to stand ''in situ'' or they can be arranged into Line (poetry), lines and/or stanzas. Writers and visual artists have adopted this form both to achieve a range of cognitive or symbolic effects and to focus on the social or political meanings of erasure. Erasure is a way to give an existing piece of writing a new set of meanings, questions, or suggestions. It lessens the trace of authorship but also draws attention to the original text. History Doris Cross appears to have been among the earliest to utilize this technique, beginning in 1965 with her "Dictionary Columns" book art. Other examples before 1980 include: *''A Humument,'' Tom Phillips (artist), Tom Phillips' 1970 major work of artist's book, book art and found poetry deconstructed from a Victo ...

LGBT Erasure
Queer erasure (also known as LGBTQIA+ erasure) refers to the tendency to intentionally or unintentionally remove LGBTQ groups or people from record, or downplay their significance, which includes lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people. This erasure can be found in a number of written and oral texts, including popular and scholarly texts. In academia and media Queer historian Gregory Samantha Rosenthal refers to queer erasure in describing the exclusion of LGBTQ history from public history that can occur in urban contexts via gentrification. Rosenthal says this results in the "displacement of queer peoples from public view". Cáel Keegan describes the lack of appropriate and realistic representation of queer people, HIV-positive people, and queer people of color as being a type of aesthetic gentrification, where space is being appropriated from queer people's communities where queer people are not given any cultural representation. Erasure of LGBTQ people has t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Erasure Channel
In coding theory and information theory, a binary erasure channel (BEC) is a communications channel model. A transmitter sends a bit (a zero or a one), and the receiver either receives the bit correctly, or with some probability P_e receives a message that the bit was not received ("erased") . Definition A binary erasure channel with erasure probability P_e is a channel with binary input, ternary output, and probability of erasure P_e. That is, let X be the transmitted random variable with alphabet \. Let Y be the received variable with alphabet \, where \text is the erasure symbol. Then, the channel is characterized by the conditional probabilities: :\begin \operatorname X = 0 &= 1 - P_e \\ \operatorname X = 1 &= 0 \\ \operatorname X = 0 &= 0 \\ \operatorname X = 1 &= 1 - P_e \\ \operatorname X = 0 &= P_e \\ \operatorname X = 1 &= P_e \end Capacity The channel capacity of a BEC is 1-P_e, attained with a uniform distribution for X (i.e. half of the inputs ...

Erasure (heraldry)
The heads of humans and other animals are frequently occurring charge (heraldry), charges in heraldry. The blazon, or heraldic description, usually states whether an animal's head is couped (as if cut off cleanly at the neck), erasure (heraldry), erased (as if forcibly ripped from the body), or cabossed (turned attitude (heraldry), affronté without any of the neck showing). Human heads are often described in much greater detail, though some of these are identified by name with little or no further description. Forms of display Heads may appear: * cabossed (also caboshed or caboched): with the head cleanly separated from the neck so that only the face shows * couped: with the neck cleanly separated from the body so that the whole head and neck are present *erased: with the neck showing a ragged edge as if forcibly torn from the body. Heads that are couped or erased face dexter and sinister, dexter unless otherwise specified for differencing. Heads of horned beasts are often sho ...

Data Erasure
Data erasure (sometimes referred to as data clearing, data wiping, or data destruction) is a software-based method of data sanitization that aims to completely destroy all electronic data residing on a hard disk drive or other digital media by overwriting data onto all sectors of the device in an irreversible process. By overwriting the data on the storage device, the data is rendered irrecoverable. Ideally, software designed for data erasure should: #Allow for selection of a specific standard, based on unique needs, and #Verify the overwriting method has been successful and removed data across the entire device. Permanent data erasure goes beyond basic file deletion commands, which only remove direct pointers to the data disk sectors and make the data recovery possible with common software tools. Unlike degaussing and physical destruction, which render the storage media unusable, data erasure removes all information while leaving the disk operable. New flash memory-based m ...

Type Erasure
In programming languages, type erasure is the load-time process by which explicit type annotations are removed from a program, before it is executed at run-time. Operational semantics not requiring programs to be accompanied by types are named ''type-erasure semantics'', in contrast with ''type-passing semantics''. Type-erasure semantics is an abstraction principle, ensuring that the run-time execution of a program doesn't depend on type information. In the context of generic programming, the opposite of type erasure is named reification. Type inference The reverse operation is named type inference. Though type erasure can be an easy way to define typing over implicitly typed languages (an implicitly typed term is well-typed if and only if it is the erasure of a well-typed explicitly typed lambda term), it doesn't provide Rule of inference Rules of inference are ways of deriving conclusions from premises. They are integral parts of formal logic, serving as norms of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
