Walking Pattern Generator Using an Evolutionary Central Pattern Generator
2010For the generation of locomotion, such as walking, running or swimming, vertebrate and invertebrate animals use the Central PatternGenerator (CPG). In this paper, a walking pattern generator is proposed using an evolutionary optimized CPG. Sensory feedback pathways in CPG are proposed, which uses Force Sensing Resistor (FSR) signals.

Central pattern generators for bipedal locomotion
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2006Golubitsky, Stewart, Buono and Collins proposed two models for the achitecture of central pattern generators (CPGs): one for bipeds (which we call leg) and one for quadrupeds (which we call quad). In this paper we use symmetry techniques to classify the possible spatiotemporal symmetries of periodic solutions that can exist in leg (there are 10 ...

Computational Model of a Central Pattern Generator
2006The buccal ganglia of Aplysia contain a central pattern generator (CPG) that mediates rhythmic movements of the foregut during feeding. This CPG is a multifunctional circuit and generates at least two types of buccal motor patterns (BMPs), one that mediates ingestion (iBMP) and another that mediates rejection (rBMP).

CEPAGE: A toolbox for Central Pattern Generator analysis
2017 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS), 2017This paper is focused on a new object-oriented toolbox, called CEPAGE, devoted to simulation and analysis of Central Pattern Generators (CPGs). A CPG is a little group of neurons producing periodical patterns, which control rhythmic activities of animals.

The mammalian central pattern generator for locomotion
Brain Research Reviews, 2009At the beginning of the 20th century, Thomas Graham Brown conducted experiments that after a long hiatus changed views on the neural control of locomotion. His seminal work supported by subsequent evidence generated largely from the 1960s onwards showed that across species walking, flying, and swimming are controlled largely by a neuronal network that ...

DRIVING RESPIRATION: THE RESPIRATORY CENTRAL PATTERN GENERATOR
Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1998SUMMARY1. The central pattern generator (CPG) for respiration is located in the brainstem and produces rhythmic synaptic drive for motoneurons controlling respiratory muscles. Based on respiratory nerve discharge, the respiratory cycle can be divided into three phases: inspiration, postinspiration and stage 2 expiration.2.

Exercise, music, and the brain: Is there a central pattern generator?
Journal of Sports Sciences, 2010The frequency for movements along the longitudinal axis during running peaks at approximately 3 Hz. Other physiological systems (e.g. heart rate and brain cortical activity) are known to show a dominant frequency of ~3 Hz connected to exercise. As recent studies have proposed a clear correlation between musical tempo, mood, and performance output, we ...

Are central pattern generators understandable?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1980AbstractMost rhythmic behaviors are produced by a specialized ensemble of neurons found in the central nervous system. These central pattern generators (CPGs) have become a cornerstone of neuronal circuit analysis. Studying simple invertebrate nervous systems may reveal the interactions of the neurons involved in the production of rhythmic motor output.

Oscillator-Generated Wave Phenomena and Central Pattern Generators
1989In Chapter 9 we saw how diffusion, chemotaxis and convection mechanisms could generate spatial patterns: in later chapters we discuss mechanisms of biologiocal pattern formation extensively. In Chapters 11, 12 and 20 we shall see how diffusion effects, for example, can also generate travelling waves, which have been used to model the spread of pest ...
