Modified dynamic movement primitives for joining movement sequences
2011 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2011The generation of complex movement patterns, in particular in cases where one needs to smoothly and accurately join trajectories, is still a difficult problem in robotics. This paper presents a novel approach for joining of several dynamic movement primitives (DMPs) based on a modification of the original formulation for DMPs.

A sequence of postural movements precedes voluntary movement
Neuroscience Letters, 1981Abstract Voluntary movement of the upper limb is preceded by postural movements occurring in the lower limbs and the pelvis. These movements are organized according to a consistent pattern, which can be related to the pattern of EMG activity. They are specific to the forthcoming voluntary movement and therefore can be considered as preprogrammed. The

Articulatory movements in VCV sequences
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1977The purpose of this experiment was to study both the timing and positional properties of articulatory movements in VCV utterances. Conventional cinefluorographic techniques were used to track the movements of the upper lip, lower lip, jaw, tongue tip, and tongue body of two speakers who read randomized lists of VCV utterances containing the vowels /i,a,

Learning movement sequences from demonstration
Proceedings 2nd International Conference on Development and Learning. ICDL 2002, 2003Presents a control and learning architecture for humanoid robots designed for acquiring movement skills in the context of imitation learning. Multiple levels of movement abstraction occur across the hierarchical structure of the architecture, finally leading to the representation of movement sequences within a probabilistic framework. As its substrate,

Proprioceptive coordination of movement sequences in humans
Clinical Neurophysiology, 2005To estimate the processing time and neuromuscular delay required to extract and process sensory information from the ankle in order to coordinate an upper extremity movement sequence.Nineteen able-bodied subjects were tested on their ability to perform a motor task that involved extension of their left index finger when their left ankle was passively ...

The learning of novel finger movement sequences
Journal of Neurophysiology, 19941. Experienced typists typed phrases containing words in which one isolated letter was typed with one hand, while the remaining letters were typed with the contralateral hand. 2. The translational and rotational motion of the fingers and wrist of the right hand were obtained optoelectronically from the location of reflective markers placed on the ...

Motor sequence learning and movement disorders
Current Opinion in Neurology, 2008New insights into the psychophysiological determinants of performance changes and brain plasticity associated with motor sequence learning have recently been gained through behavioral and imaging studies in healthy individuals. In addition, using a variety of motor sequential paradigms in groups of patients affected by a movement disorder, major ...

Central and peripheral coordination in movement sequences
Psychological Research, 1993Motor coordination has been too poorly defined to be a useful construct in studying the control of movement. In general, motor coordination involves controlling both the timing and the kinematics of movement. Yet the motor behaviors typically used for the study of coordination have required controlling only the timing or the spatial aspects of a ...

Asymmetric effector transfer of complex movement sequences
Human Movement Science, 2010An experiment was designed to determine if the addition of a load altered the effector transfer profile observed in earlier experiments using multi-element movement sequences. The acquisition task required participants to move a horizontal lever (with 0.567kg load) to 16 sequentially projected targets.

Sequence of Preparatory Set for Response Movement
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1988Electromyographic reaction times (EMG-RTs) of the right biceps brachii muscle were examined for two movement patterns, elbow flexion and forearm supination, in 8 healthy male subjects under simple and complex RT conditions with varied preparatory intervals (PIs): 0, 200, 400, 600, and 800 msec.
