M-Translog-2: A Planning Domain Designed for AIPS-2002
(2002-10-03)This document describes UM-Translog-2, which is an extended version of the UM Translog planning domain. The extensions include some numerical-computation features to make the domain a more realistic model of transpor ... -
The M167 mu+kappa Immunoglobulin Transgene Increases Susceptibility to Pristane-Induced Plasmacytomas In BALB/c Mice
(2005-04-20)The goal of this research was to investigate the role of Ig transgenes (Tgs) in plasma cell tumor development as a useful means of examining potential antigen-specific B cell precursors. The Ig Tg M167mk (V1 mu plus Vk24) ... -
MacArthur's Defense of the Philippines in the Perspective of the United States Press
(1968)When war exploded over the Pacific on 7 December 1941, the average American knew little of the Pacific world and its peoples. Although tension in the Pacific between the United States and Japan had heightened during the ... -
Machinability Evaluation of Dental Restorative Materials
(1996)Ceramic materials are ideal candidates for dental restorative applications for their color, texture, and mechanical properties which closely resemble those of the human enamel. However, due to the inherent brittleness of ... -
Machinal: A Scenic Design
(2021)The purpose of this thesis is to provide research, supporting paperwork, production photographs, and other materials that document the scenic design process for the production of Machinal by Sophie Treadwell at the University ... -
MACHINAL: LIGHTING DESIGN AND RESEARCH IN THE DIGITAL PERFORMANCE ERA
(2021)The purpose of this thesis is to provide research, supporting paperwork, andproduction photographs that document the lighting design process for the University of Maryland - College Park, School of Theatre, Dance, and ... -

(2021)In this document is a description of the process of researching and developing the costume designs for the University of Maryland, College Park production of Machinal. This thesis contains the entire design and re-design ... -
Machine Learning Approaches for Data-Driven Analysis and Forecasting of High-Dimensional Chaotic Dynamical Systems
(2019)We consider problems in the forecasting of large, complex, spatiotemporal chaotic systems and the possibility that machine learning might be a useful tool for significant improvement of such forecasts. Focusing on weather ... -
Machine Learning of Facial Attributes Using Explainable, Secure and Generative Adversarial Networks
(2018)"Attributes" are referred to abstractions that humans use to group entities and phenomena that have a common characteristic. In machine learning (ML), attributes are fundamental because they bridge the semantic gap between ... -
Machine Printed Text and Handwriting Identification in Noisy Document Images
(2003-09-25)In this paper we address the problem of the identification of text in noisy document images. We are especially focused on segmenting and identifying between handwriting and machine printed text because: 1) handwriting ... -
Machine Translation by Pattern Matching
(2008-04-22)The best systems for machine translation of natural language are based on statistical models learned from data. Conventional representation of a statistical translation model requires substantial offline computation and ... -
MACHINE VISION TECHNOLOGY FOR FOOD QUALITY AND SAFETY INSPECTIONS
(2008-10-02)With increased expectations for food products of high quality and safety standards, the need for accurate, fast and objective determination of these characteristics in food products continues to grow. Machine vision as a ... -
MACHINERY ANOMALY DETECTION UNDER INDETERMINATE OPERATING CONDITIONS
(2018)Anomaly detection is a critical task in system health monitoring. Current practice of anomaly detection in machinery systems is still unsatisfactory. One issue is with the use of features. Some features are insensitive to ... -
Machtverhältnisse und die Problematik des postkolonialen Blicks in Uwe Timms Morenga (1978) und Gerhard Seyfrieds Herero (2003)
(2016)Using a postcolonial methodology within a German Cultural Studies framework, this thesis applies a close reading to Uwe Timm’s 1978 novel Morenga and Gerhard Seyfried’s 2003 novel Herero. Both novels narrate the colonial ... -
THE MACROECONOMICS OF FISCAL CONSOLIDATIONS
(2018)In the past decade, numerous governments had to adjust their fiscal balance, as a result of the Great Recession and most recently due to the fall in commodity prices. In Chapter 1, I construct a novel dataset to estimate ... -
The Macroeconomics of Rare Events
(2010)People in developing countries are more often affected by rare events, such as natural disasters and epidemics, than people in developed nations. Furthermore, the intensity of these events is usually higher in poor countries. ... -
MACROINVERTEBRATE COMMUNITY STRUCTURE AND ECOLOGICAL FUNCTION IN MARYLAND COASTAL PLAIN STREAMS
(2004-08-17)Abiotic conditions within streams, especially those conditions impacted by human activities, often influence the community structure and ecosystem function. While coastal regions have been strongly impacted by urban ... -
Macroinvertebrate predators and their role in shaping freshwater communities in constructed wetlands
(2008-07-29)The recent increase in the number of wetland construction projects has led to numerous studies investigating the response of the macroinvertebrate community in wetlands. Little is known, however, about the factors structuring ... -
Macromodeling for Mixed Signal Circuits
(1992)Macromodels of functional blocks of VLSI circuits are used to reduce the computational effort involved in the detailed simulation of general-purpose circuits. However the macromodeling approaches in the literature have ...
