Memristive circuit-based model of central pattern generator to reproduce spinal neuronal activity in walking pattern [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Existing methods of neurorehabilitation include invasive or non-invasive stimulators that are usually simple digital generators with manually set parameters like pulse width, period, burst duration, and frequency of stimulation series. An obvious lack of

Optimal searching behaviour generated intrinsically by the central pattern generator for locomotion [PDF]

eLife, 2019
Efficient searching for resources such as food by animals is key to their survival. It has been proposed that diverse animals from insects to sharks and humans adopt searching patterns that resemble a simple Lévy random walk, which is theoretically ...

Hierarchical reinforcement learning with central pattern generator for enabling a quadruped robot simulator to walk on a variety of terrains [PDF]

Scientific Reports
We present a data-driven deep reinforcement learning (DRL) method for the optimization of a hierarchically structured control policy that includes the central pattern generator.

Potential role of a ventral nerve cord central pattern generator in forward and backward locomotion in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

Network Neuroscience, 2018
C. elegans locomotes in an undulatory fashion, generating thrust by propagating dorsoventral bends along its body. Although central pattern generators (CPGs) are typically involved in animal locomotion, their presence in C.

Rethinking central pattern generators: A general approach [PDF]

Neurocomputing, 2000
Abstract Central pattern generators (CPGs) have traditionally been modeled as sets of coupled bistable oscillators (Marder and Calabrese, Physiol. Rev. 76(3) (1996) 687–717). We present a framework for constructing models which avoid the shortcomings of these traditional models, while remaining biologically plausible.

Central pattern generator and feedforward neural network-based self-adaptive gait control for a crab-like robot locomoting on complex terrain under two reflex mechanisms

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2017
Although quite a few central pattern generator controllers have been developed to regulate the locomotion of terrestrial bionic robots, few studies have been conducted on the central pattern generator control technique for amphibious robots crawling on ...

Sigmoid transition approach of the central pattern generator-based controller for the snake-like robot

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2017
Snake-like robots can perform various types of locomotion in the complex environments. In this article, a novel two-layered central pattern generator-based controller is proposed for controlling snake-like robots.

A central pattern generator approach to footstep transition for biped navigation

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2017
Existing sampling-based footstep planning method for biped navigation used an intermediate static posture for footstep transition. However, when adopting this approach, the robot is sensitive to modeling error and external environments, and also the ...

Mapping Connectivity Amongst Interneuronal Components of the Locomotor CPG

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
The basic rhythmic activity characteristic of locomotion in mammals is generated by a neural network, located in the spinal cord, known as the locomotor central pattern generator (CPG).
