In order to complement the theoretical description and make it more predictive, it would be desirable to estimate the strong and weak counterterm couplings in the framework of QCD. There presently are some attempts to dynamically derive the values of these couplings from `first principles', by means of suitable effective actions representing moderate-energy QCD, limited to the operators relevant to the strong interaction . Results seem encouraging [33], and hopefully will lead to an improved theoretical situation, at least in the strong interaction sector.
