Flight delay prediction has recently gained growing popularity due to the significant role it plays in efficient airline and airport operation. Most of previous works consider single-airport scenario, which overlooks time-varying spatial interactions hidden networks. In this paper, flight problem is investigated from a network perspective (i.e., multi-airport scenario). To model time-evolving p...

Any prediction of the future position and trajectory of an aircraft will contain errors due to both uncertainty caused by the environment and imperfect and incomplete information available to the prediction system. These prediction errors complicate conflict detection and resolution resulting in late or missed conflict detections and false alerts. Generally there are two types of conflict detec...

Production parallel systems are space-shared, and resource allocation on such systems is usually performed using a batch queue scheduler. Jobs submitted to the batch queue experience a variable delay before the requested resources are granted. Predicting this delay can assist users in planning experiment time-frames and choosing sites with less turnaround times and can also help meta-schedulers...

| Long-term memory motion-compensated prediction extends the spatial displacement vector utilized in block-based hybrid video coding by a variable time delay permitting the use of more frames than the previously decoded one for motion compensated prediction. The long-term memory covers several seconds of decoded frames at encoder and decoder. The use of multiple frames for motion compensation i...

Position information obtained from standard GPS receivers is known to be corrupted with noise. To make effective use of GPS information in a navigation system it is essential to model this noise and to eliminate its effect. This paper present Parallel Structure Wavelet Based Neural Network (PSWNN) for predicting the Differential GPS (DGPS) corrections. The PSWNN consists of multiple numbers of ...

Optically controlled delay lines in optical fibers are demonstrated by use of the group-velocity control of signal pulses based on stimulated Brillouin scattering. We achieve continuous time delay within the range of 150 ns, much larger than the width of the 40 ns signal pulse, using cascaded fiber segments joined by unidirectional optical attenuators. In the meantime, we also observe a large a...

A critical subroutine of self-monitoring during speech production is to detect any deviance between expected and actual auditory feedback. Here we investigated the associated neural dynamics using MEG recording in mental-imagery-of-speech paradigms. Participants covertly articulated the vowel /a/; their own (individually recorded) speech was played back, with parametric manipulation using four ...
