Controlling swimming and crawling in a fish robot using a central pattern generator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Online trajectory generation for robots with multiple degrees of freedom is still a difficult and unsolved problem, in particular for non-steady state locomotion, that is, when the robot has to move in a complex environment with continuous variations of ...

AER-based robotic closed-loop control system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Address-Event-Representation (AER) is an asynchronous protocol for transferring the information of spiking neuro-inspired systems. Actually AER systems are able to see, to ear, to process information, and to learn.

Optimization of Central Pattern Generator-Based Torque-Stiffness-Controlled Dynamic Bipedal Walking

open access: yesJournal of Robotics, 2020
In this paper, we propose a central pattern generator-based model to control the walking motion of a biped robot. The model independently controls the joint torque and joint stiffness in real time.

Contributions to the theory of a two-scale homogeneous dynamo experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The principle of the Karlsruhe dynamo experiment is closely related to that of the Roberts dynamo working with a simple fluid flow which is, with respect to proper Cartesian co-ordinates x, y and z, periodic in x and y and independent of z.

Classification of rhythmic locomotor patterns in electromyographic signals using fuzzy sets

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2011
Background Locomotor control is accomplished by a complex integration of neural mechanisms including a central pattern generator, spinal reflexes and supraspinal control centres.

Multivariable harmonic balance for central pattern generators [PDF]

open access: yesAutomatica, 2008
The central pattern generator (CPG) is a nonlinear oscillator formed by a group of neurons, providing a fundamental control mechanism underlying rhythmic movements in animal locomotion. We consider a class of CPGs modeled by a set of interconnected identical neurons.

The ins and outs of breathing

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Distinct populations of neurons within the brainstem are responsible for generating and coordinating the rhythmic patterns of neural activity that underlie breathing.

Atoh1-dependent rhombic lip neurons are required for temporal delay between independent respiratory oscillators in embryonic mice

open access: yeseLife, 2014
All motor behaviors require precise temporal coordination of different muscle groups. Breathing, for example, involves the sequential activation of numerous muscles hypothesized to be driven by a primary respiratory oscillator, the preBötzinger Complex ...

Dopamine: A parallel pathway for modulation of locomotor networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
The spinal cord contains networks of neurons that can produce locomotor patterns. To readily respond to environmental conditions, these networks must be flexible yet at the same time robust.

Neural Control of Interlimb Oscillations II. Biped and Quadruped Gaits and Bifurications [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Behavioral data concerning animal and human gaits and gait transitions are simulated as emergent properties of a central pattern generator (CPG) model. The CPG model is a version of the Ellias-Grossberg oscillator.
