An adaptive control system in which some or all of the plant parameters cannot be identified, thus requiring the use of an implicit identification technique in which specific output variables are compared with the desired performance. This comparison is easily made by driving both the system and a model of the system with unknown parameters. The model produces the proper output for the given input function, and an error can be generated by comparing the two outputs. The error function is the one used to modify the parameters of the controller.... 1, record 5, English, - model%20reference%20control%20system

L'utilisation d'un programme procédural pour simuler les activités cognitives est très répandue. Il s'agit en général de modèles locaux, formalisant une procédure, et qui ont pour objectif de décrire des données plutôt que de proposer des modèles explicatifs. Certains modèles procéduraux ont un objectif explicatif. Dans les modèles probabilistes, les paramètres traduisent des processus psychologiques. 1, record 6, French, - mod%C3%A8le%20explicatif

Remarquez l'emploi de l'implicite zéro. On s'en sert quand on ne peut pas appliquer un des implicites du langage. Ici, c'est la formalisation d'une règle qui ne nécessite l'emploi d'aucune fonction.
