Synthesis of New Dynamic Movement Primitives Through Search in a Hierarchical Database of Example Movements

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2015
This paper presents a novel approach to discovering motor primitives in a hierarchical database of example trajectories. An initial set of example trajectories is obtained by human demonstration.

Muscle Activation Patterns Are More Constrained and Regular in Treadmill Than in Overground Human Locomotion

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
The use of motorized treadmills as convenient tools for the study of locomotion has been in vogue for many decades. However, despite the widespread presence of these devices in many scientific and clinical environments, a full consensus on their validity

Advancing Human Skin Equivalents: The Crucial Role of Neurovascular Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses the importance of integrating vascular and peripheral nerve systems into human skin equivalents (HSEs) to better recapitulate native skin physiology. Recent advances in vascularized, innervated, and neurovascularized HSEs are highlighted, together with emerging bioengineering strategies, current challenges, and future ...

Exploring motor skill acquisition in bimanual coordination: insights from navigating a novel maze task

Scientific Reports
In this study, we introduce a novel maze task designed to investigate naturalistic motor learning in bimanual coordination. We developed and validated an extended set of movement primitives tailored to capture the full spectrum of scenarios encountered ...

Learned graphical models for probabilistic planning provide a new class of movement primitives

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013
Biological movement generation combines three interesting aspects: itsmodular organization in movement primitives, its characteristics ofstochastic optimality under perturbations, and its efficiency in termsof learning.

Brain-inspired model for early vocal learning and correspondence matching using free-energy optimization.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2021
We propose a developmental model inspired by the cortico-basal system (CX-BG) for vocal learning in babies and for solving the correspondence mismatch problem they face when they hear unfamiliar voices, with different tones and pitches.

Reinforcement Learning for Motor Primitives [PDF]

, 2008
Motor primitives based on dynamical systems [Ijspeert et al., 2002a] have enabled robots to learn complex tasks ranging from tennis-swings to legged locomotion. However, most interesting motor learning problems are high-dimensional reinforcement learning

Evidence for Itinerant Ferromagnetic Flat Bands Producing Large Transverse Responses

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Itinerant ferromagnetic flat bands are demonstrated in GdCo5 with a high Curie temperature of 940K, a stacked honeycomb–kagome lattice, through angle‐resolved photoemission spectroscopy and magneto‐thermoelectric measurements. These topological flat bands generate large Berry curvaturte, producing gigantic anomalous Nernst effect with record‐high ...

Distinguishing Synchronous and Time Varying Synergies using Point Process Interval Statistics: Motor Primitives in Frog and Rat.

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013
We present and apply a method that uses point process statistics to discriminate the forms of synergies in motor pattern data, prior to explicit synergy extraction. The method uses electromyogram (EMG) pulse peak timing or onset timing.
