Dans le plan horizontal l'urbanisme souterrain diffère peu, quant à ses principes, de la surface. Il n'en est pas de même pour la répartition des diverses fonctions dans le plan vertical. L'urbaniste de la surface a rarement l'occasion de superposer les diverses fonctions urbaines et de les répartir verticalement en zones : c'est ce que devra faire l'urbaniste souterrain, d'où apparition pour la première fois du «zoning vertical» ou du «zoning de coupe». 2, record 1, French, - urbaniste%20souterrain

To coincide with a change in ecological attitude, the oil industry has been able to develop new techniques when it comes to tapping hidden oil reserves. It is no longer necessary for an oil well to be designed around a vertical shaft. By means of multidirectional drilling many fields can be accessed from outside locations and pumped back to a main station. While new procedures cost more money, they can greatly reduce environmental impact. 2, record 2, English, - multidirectional%20drilling

The reconstruction cost is the number of bits required to describe the misfit between the raw input and the best approximation to it that could be reconstructed from the activities of the hidden units. The reconstruction cost is proportional to the squared difference between the raw input and its reconstruction. 1, record 3, English, - reconstruction%20cost
