Setting the pace: new insights into central pattern generator interactions in box jellyfish swimming [PDF]

, 2011
Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) produce rhythmic behaviour across all animal phyla. Cnidarians, which have a radially symmetric nervous system and pacemaker centres in multiples of four, provide an interesting comparison to bilaterian animals for ...

Elimination of Left-Right Reciprocal Coupling in the Adult Lamprey Spinal Cord Abolishes the Generation of Locomotor Activity

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017
The contribution of left-right reciprocal coupling between spinal locomotor networks to the generation of locomotor activity was tested in adult lampreys.

The generation of antiphase oscillations and synchrony by a rebound-based vertebrate central pattern generator [PDF]

, 2014
Many neural circuits are capable of generating multiple stereotyped outputs after different sensory inputs or neuromodulation.We have previously identified the central pattern generator (CPG) forXenopustadpole swimming that involves antiphase ...

Sensor-Based Programming of Central Pattern Generators in Humanoid Robots

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2013
In the present article, a method for generating curvilinear bipedal walking patterns is proposed which is able to generate rhythmic and periodic trajectories for a Nao soccer player robot. To do so, a programmable central pattern generator was used which

Silicon central pattern generators for cardiac diseases [PDF]

, 2015
Cardiac rhythm management devices provide therapies for both arrhythmias and resynchronisation but not heart failure, which affects millions of patients worldwide. This paper reviews recent advances in biophysics and mathematical engineering that provide

Rhythmic movements in sleep disorders and in epileptic seizures during sleep

Sleep Science and Practice, 2020
Rhythmic movements during sleep may occur in the context of physiological sleep-related motor activity or be part of sleep-related movement disorders such as bruxism, periodic limb movement disorder, restless legs syndrome, and sleep-related rhythmic ...

A Scalar Poincaré Map for Anti-phase Bursting in Coupled Inhibitory Neurons With Synaptic Depression

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2022
Short-term synaptic plasticity is found in many areas of the central nervous system. In the inhibitory half-center central pattern generators involved in locomotion, synaptic depression is believed to act as a burst termination mechanism, allowing ...
