Extended Aircraft Arrival Management under Uncertainty: A Computational Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Arrival Manager (AMAN) operational horizon, in Europe, is foreseen to be extended up to 500 nautical miles around destination airports. In this context, arrivals need to be sequenced and scheduled a few hours before landing, when uncertainty is still significant. A computational study, based on a two-stage stochastic program, is presented and discussed to address the arrival sequencing and scheduling problem under uncertainty. This preliminary study focuses on a single Initial Approach Fix (IAF) and a single runway. Different problem characteristics, optimization parameters as well as fast solution methods for real-time implementation are analyzed in order to evaluate the viability of our approach. Paris Charles-De-Gaulle airport is taken as a case study. A simulation-based validation experiment shows that our approach can decrease the number of expected conflicts near the terminal area by 90%. Moreover, assuming that air traffic controllers (ATCs) schedule landings in a first-come first-served order, the ATC expected workload in the terminal area can be decreased by more than 98%, while the expected landing rate remains unchanged. This computational study demonstrates that sequencing and scheduling arrivals under uncertainty, a few hours before landing, can successfully diminish the need for holding stacks by relying more on upstream linear holding.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
