The Mid-Level Model (MLM) is a MITRE CAASD-developed fast-time network simulation of the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS) and other world regions. We present a brief overview of MLM and an example of an MLM application to Air Traffic Flow Management (TFM). TFM actions are commonly used to mitigate capacity/demand imbalances within the NAS. Modeling TFM events has proven challenging in the pa...

In this paper, we propose a method for multi-class pattern classification by combined use of Multinomial Logit Model (MLM) and K-nearest neighbor rule (KNN). Multinomial Logit Model (MLM) is one of the neural network models for multi-class pattern classification, and is supposed to be equal or better in class&cation performance than linear classification methods. K-NN is a simple but powerful n...

The use and quality of longitudinal research designs has increased over the past two decades, and new approaches for analyzing longitudinal data, including multi-level modeling (MLM) and latent growth modeling (LGM), have been developed. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the use of MLM and its advantages in analyzing longitudinal data. Data from a sample of individuals with intra-arti...

Capsicum species are very important in Brazil because of economic, cultural and biological factors, and the country is considered to be a diversity center for this genus. Collection and maintenance of the genetic diversity in Capsicum are important to avoid genetic erosion. Besides the identification of species, the characterization and evaluation of accessions maintained in gene banks are of f...

Multilevel data structures are common in the social sciences. Often, such nested data are analysed with multilevel models (MLMs) in which heterogeneity between clusters is modelled by continuously distributed random intercepts and/or slopes. Alternatively, the non-parametric multilevel regression mixture model (NPMM) can accommodate the same nested data structures through discrete latent class ...

Fermented mixtures containing fish-offal meal (FOM) and mulberry leaf meal (MLM) were used as protein supplement to partially replace fish meal (FM) in the formulation of diets for the Indian minor carp Labeo bata. The diets included a reference diet (20 % FM), three diets of fermented mixture of FOM and MLM (T2–T4) replacing 50 to 75 % of FM. Formulation of diet with 30 % FOM, 24 % MLM and 5 ...

We deene a type theory MLM, which has proof theoretical strength slightly greater then Rathjens theory KPM. This is achieved by replacing the universe in Martin-LL of's Type Theory by a new universe V, which has the property that for every function f, mapping families of sets in V to families of sets in V, there exists a universe closed under f. We show that the proof theoretical strength of ML...

Resource allocation approaches play a very important role in improving the performance of a communication system. Load matrix (LM) [3] is a resource allocation approach used in single carrier mobile communication systems in a multi-cell scenario to reduce the interference (both inter-cell and intra –cell) to increase the system throughput decrease the packet delay. In this paper a resource allo...

In this paper, we propose a brief and general process to compute the eigenvalue of arbitrary waveguides using meshless method based on radial basis functions (MLM-RBF) interpolation. The main idea is that RBF basis functions are used in a point matching method to solve the Helmholtz equation only in Cartesian system. Two kinds of boundary conditions of waveguide problems are also analyzed. To v...
