    The Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) [1] Program is a two-year training and leadership development program at a United States government agency, administered by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), for advanced degree holders (both current and recent graduates). After completing the program, agencies may convert PMFs to permanent ...

  3. Probability mass function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_mass_function

    The graph of a probability mass function. All the values of this function must be non-negative and sum up to 1. In probability and statistics, a probability mass function (sometimes called probability function or frequency function [1]) is a function that gives the probability that a discrete random variable is exactly equal to some value. [2]

  4. Potential of mean force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_of_mean_force

    The PMF can be obtained in Monte Carlo or molecular dynamics simulations to examine how a system's energy changes as a function of some specific reaction coordinate parameter. For example, it may examine how the system's energy changes as a function of the distance between two residues, or as a protein is pulled through a lipid bilayer.

    The IAS machine was the first electronic computer built at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton, New Jersey. It is sometimes called the von Neumann machine, since the paper describing its design was edited by John von Neumann , a mathematics professor at both Princeton University and IAS.

  7. Polarization-maintaining optical fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarization-maintaining...

    In fiber optics, polarization-maintaining optical fiber (PMF or PM fiber) is a single-mode optical fiber in which linearly polarized light, if properly launched into the fiber, maintains a linear polarization during propagation, exiting the fiber in a specific linear polarization state; there is little or no cross-coupling of optical power ...

  8. International Financial Reporting Standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Financial...

    The standard IAS 1 also requires an additional statement of financial position (also called a third balance sheet) when an entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively or makes a retrospective restatement of items in its financial statements, or when it reclassifies items in its financial statements.

  9. Harry Partch's 43-tone scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Partch's_43-tone_scale

    Quadrangularis Reversum, one of Partch's instruments featuring the 43-tone scale. The 43-tone scale is a just intonation scale with 43 pitches in each octave.It is based on an eleven-limit tonality diamond, similar to the seven-limit diamond previously devised by Max Friedrich Meyer [1] and refined by Harry Partch.
