  2. Atkinson–Shiffrin memory model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atkinson–Shiffrin_memory...

    The model of memories is an explanation of how memory processes work. The three-part, multi-store model was first described by Atkinson and Shiffrin in 1968, [1] though the vac idea of distinct memory stores was by no means a new idea at the time. William James described a distinction between primary and secondary memory in 1890, where primary ...

  3. Model theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_theory

    Model theory. In mathematical logic, model theory is the study of the relationship between formal theories (a collection of sentences in a formal language expressing statements about a mathematical structure ), and their models (those structures in which the statements of the theory hold). [1] The aspects investigated include the number and ...

  4. Models of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    Many models of communication include the idea that a sender encodes a message and uses a channel to transmit it to a receiver. Noise may distort the message along the way. The receiver then decodes the message and gives some form of feedback. [1] Models of communication are simplified representations of the process of communication.

  5. Modal logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_logic

    Modal logic is a kind of logic used to represent statements about necessity and possibility. It plays a major role in philosophy and related fields as a tool for understanding concepts such as knowledge, obligation, and causation. For instance, in epistemic modal logic, the formula can be used to represent the statement that is known.

  6. Mode (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(music)

    A musical scale is a series of pitches in a distinct order. The concept of "mode" in Western music theory has three successive stages: in Gregorian chant theory, in Renaissance polyphonic theory, and in tonal harmonic music of the common practice period. In all three contexts, "mode" incorporates the idea of the diatonic scale, but differs from ...

  7. Mode choice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_choice

    Mode choice. Mode choice analysis is the third step in the conventional four-step transportation forecasting model of transportation planning, following trip distribution and preceding route assignment. From origin-destination table inputs provided by trip distribution, mode choice analysis allows the modeler to determine probabilities that ...

  8. Modal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_analysis

    Modal analysis is the study of the dynamic properties of systems in the frequency domain. It consists of mechanically exciting a studied component in such a way to target the modeshapes of the structure, and recording the vibration data with a network of sensors. Examples would include measuring the vibration of a car's body when it is attached ...

  9. Intuitionistic logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intuitionistic_logic

    However, Robert Constable has shown that a weaker notion of completeness still holds for intuitionistic logic under a Tarski-like model. In this notion of completeness we are concerned not with all of the statements that are true of every model, but with the statements that are true in the same way in every model. That is, a single proof that ...
