The objective of the changes made in the gain parameter is to minimize the value of the functional given by(the) equation. However, the relationship between the gain and the functional is generally not known a priori. Consequently, we must rely on search techniques to find the value of gain that minimizes the functional, J. To do this, a small change is made in the gain and the error change is observed. If the value of the functional decreases, we continue to change the gain in the same direction. This process(is) a realization of the gradient search or steepest descent technique.... 2, record 1, English, - gradient%20search

In a twin-screw extruder, mechanical shear forces, heat, and pressure cause considerable changes in the molecular structures of the dairy proteins, a process known as texturization. These changes further impart unique functional properties to dairy proteins, resulting in new protein-based food ingredients. The new functional behavior depends on the extent of texturization and the degree of structural change imparted and is controlled by adjusting parameters such as extrusion temperature and moisture level. 4, record 2, English, - texturization

La texturation permet de valoriser certains produits de l'industrie agroalimentaire (protéines végétales, poissons, sous-produits des laiteries, des abattoirs, etc.) en leur conférant une texture proche de celle des aliments naturels (viande, chair du crabe, par exemple). La texturation comporte trois étapes. Les molécules de protéines, qui se présentent sous forme de pelotes, sont d'abord déroulées, puis orientées parallèlement les unes aux autres. Enfin, l'ensemble est consolidé par création de liaisons entre les molécules. 4, record 2, French, - texturation

L'autonomie, la réadaptation et la qualité de vie. Il convient de remarquer que les échelles fonctionnelles globales, utilisées en dehors de la période aiguë, tel l'index de Barthel ou la Mesure de l'Indépendance Fonctionnelle (MIF), ne mesurent pas les performances en milieu de vie ordinaire. Le devenir de l'autonomie en milieu normal ne peut donc être interprété qu'avec un outil d'évaluation approprié. Une étude, utilisant l'index d'activités de Frenchay, proposé comme une échelle d'évaluation du handicap, montre qu'au terme de 5 ans, très peu de sujets sont capables d'autonomie dans les activités sociales habituelles : préparation d'un repas, sorties, achats à l'extérieur, travail ménager, jardinage. 2, record 6, French, - index%20d%27activit%C3%A9s%20de%20Frenchay

La relation fonctionnelle désigne la relation existant entre divers éléments qui tendent à survenir ensemble dans un certain ordre. La relation fonctionnelle traduit généralement en science la relation philosophique de cause et d'effet. Plus précisément, elle traduit la relation entre une variable indépendante et une variable dépendante. En analyse expérimentale du comportement, le comportement étudié est toujours la variable dépendante. Il s'agit alors de déterminer l'effet de certaines variables indépendantes de l'environnement sur le comportement. 1, record 13, French, - relation%20fonctionnelle
