A New Approach to Manipulator Control: The Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller (CMAC)
Abstract
CM AC is an adaptive system by which control functions for many degrees of freedom operating simultaneously can be computed by referring to a table rather than by mathematical solution of simultaneous equations. CM AC combines input commands and feedback variables into an input vector which is used to address a memory where the appropriate output variables are stored. Each address consists of a set of physical memory locations, the arithmetic sum of whose contents is the value of the stored variable. The CM AC memory addressing algorithm takes advantage of the continuous nature of the control function in a way which promises to make it possible to store the necessary data in a physical memory of practical size.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
