Long-tail Behavior in Locomotion of Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2010 The locomotion of Caenorhabditis elegans exhibits complex patterns. In particular, the worm combines mildly curved runs and sharp turns to steer its course. Both runs and sharp turns of various types are important components of taxis behavior.

Cocaine modulates locomotion behavior in C. elegans.
PLoS ONE, 2009 Cocaine, a potent addictive substance, is an inhibitor of monoamine transporters, including DAT (dopamine transporter), SERT (serotonin transporter) and NET (norepinephrine transporter).

Chaotic Exploration and Learning of Locomotion Behaviors [PDF]
Neural Computation, 2012 We present a general and fully dynamic neural system, which exploits intrinsic chaotic dynamics, for the real-time goal-directed exploration and learning of the possible locomotion patterns of an articulated robot of an arbitrary morphology in an unknown environment.

Topological Data Analysis of C. elegans Locomotion and Behavior [PDF]
Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2021 We apply topological data analysis to the behavior of C. elegans, a widely studied model organism in biology. In particular, we use topology to produce a quantitative summary of complex behavior which may be applied to high-throughput data. Our methods allow us to distinguish and classify videos from various environmental conditions and we analyze the ...

Morphological Evolution of Physical Robots through Model-Free Phenotype Development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Artificial evolution of physical systems is a stochastic optimization method in which physical machines are iteratively adapted to a target function. The key for a meaningful design optimization is the capability to build variations of physical machines ...

Locomotion behavior changes in peripartum beef cows and heifers. [PDF]
J Anim Sci, 2019 Changes in locomotor activity of beef females during the 72 h prepartum were determined in 3 experiments: (i) a 2-yr study with spring-calving multiparous cows (Exp. 1; n = 34 and 27 for years 1 and 2, respectively); (ii) spring-calving primiparous (first pregnancy; n = 13) and multiparous (n = 21) dams (Exp. 2); and (iii) fall-calving multiparous cows

Studies of intercellular invasion in vitro using rabbit peritoneal neutrophil granulocytes (PMNS). I. Role of contact inhibition of locomotion. [PDF]
, 1975 Intercellular invasion is the active migration of cells on one type into the interiors of tissues composed of cells of dissimilar cell types. Contact paralysis of locomotion is the cessation of forward extension of the pseudopods of a cell as a result of

Model Reduction Near Periodic Orbits of Hybrid Dynamical Systems [PDF]
, 2015 We show that, near periodic orbits, a class of hybrid models can be reduced to or approximated by smooth continuous-time dynamical systems. Specifically, near an exponentially stable periodic orbit undergoing isolated transitions in a hybrid dynamical ...

EGFR and FGFR pathways have distinct roles in Drosophila mushroom body development and ethanol-induced behavior. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) signaling has a conserved role in ethanol-induced behavior in flies and mice, affecting ethanol-induced sedation in both species.
