A function used to approximate a specified function on an interval, consisting of pieces which are defined uniquely on a set of subintervals, usually as polynomials or some other simple form, and which match up with each other and the prescribed function at the end points of the subintervals with a sufficiently high degree of accuracy.  3, fiche 1, Anglais, - spline

In order to perform accurate continental reconstructions across closed oceans, it is necessary to be able to describe mathematically the operation involved in making the geometric fit. This is accomplished according to a theorem of Euler, which states that the movement of a portion of a sphere across its surface is uniquely defined by a single angular rotation about a pole of rotation...  1, fiche 3, Anglais, - Euler%26rsquo%3Bs%20theorem

A stimulus, usually internal, which is hypothesized to occur in and to be uniquely determined by a given drive state. [This concept allows drives to have the empirical properties of stimuli. Thoeries often identify them with specific events within the organism, and so it is possible that they may in the future be empirically defined. ].  1, fiche 5, Anglais, - drive%20stimulus

The BLOCKS tutor(Brown and Burton, 1978b) is based on a game in manipulatory mathematics that uses the concept of(attribute blocks)(Greenes et al., 1972) to exercise the student's deductive abilities of the type necessary for(troubleshooting.) In the game as implemented, a block is defined by three attributes : its size(large or small), its color(red, yellow, green, or blue), and its shape(triangle, square, circle, or diamond). In the card A and card B each state one attribute value(e. g., large) or the negation of a value(e. g., not blue). Thus they each define a set of blocks. These two sets, with their union and their intersection, define four areas as shown in the diagram. The contents of the two cards are not shown to the student, who must deduce them by a sequence of queries. For each query, he chooses one block and asks the system in which of the four areas the block should be placed according to the cards’ contents. If each new block is chosen judiciously, knowing where it belongs narrows the range of possible values for the cards until these values are uniquely determined. The skill of the game is then to select blocks whose placement is expected to provide a maximum of information about the cards. This is analogous to selecting optimal measurements in(troubleshooting.)  1, fiche 6, Anglais, - attribute%20block
