  2. ACT-R - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACT-R

    ACT-R (pronounced /ˌækt ˈɑr/; short for "Adaptive Control of Thought—Rational") is a cognitive architecture mainly developed by John Robert Anderson and Christian Lebiere at Carnegie Mellon University. Like any cognitive architecture, ACT-R aims to define the basic and irreducible cognitive and perceptual operations that enable the human ...

  3. Control theory (sociology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory_(sociology)

    Control theory diagram [1] Control theory in sociology is the idea that two control systems—inner controls and outer controls—work against our tendencies to deviate. Control theory can either be classified as centralized or decentralized. Decentralized control is considered market control. Centralized control is considered bureaucratic control.

  4. Classical control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_control_theory

    Classical control theory is a branch of control theory that deals with the behavior of dynamical systems with inputs, and how their behavior is modified by feedback, using the Laplace transform as a basic tool to model such systems.

  5. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    In contrast to the frequency domain analysis of the classical control theory, modern control theory utilizes the time-domain state space representation, [citation needed] a mathematical model of a physical system as a set of input, output and state variables related by first-order differential equations. To abstract from the number of inputs ...

    Another early form of the theory was proposed by Reiss (1951) [3] who defined delinquency as, "...behavior consequent to the failure of personal and social controls." ." Personal control was defined as, "...the ability of the individual to refrain from meeting needs in ways which conflict with the norms and rules of the community" while social control was, "...the ability of social groups or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Regulator

    The construction of ethical regulators is a general problem for any system (e.g., an automated information system) that regulates some domain of application. When restricted to the ordinary differential equation (ODE) subset of control theory , it is referred to as the internal model principle , which was first articulated in 1976 by B. A ...

  9. Hamiltonian (control theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamiltonian_(control_theory)

    Inspired by—but distinct from—the Hamiltonian of classical mechanics, the Hamiltonian of optimal control theory was developed by Lev Pontryagin as part of his maximum principle. [2] Pontryagin proved that a necessary condition for solving the optimal control problem is that the control should be chosen so as to optimize the Hamiltonian. [3]
