Learning accurate path integration in ring attractor models of the head direction system [PDF]
Ring attractor models for angular path integration have received strong experimental support. To function as integrators, head direction circuits require precisely tuned connectivity, but it is currently unknown how such tuning could be achieved.

Influence of sensory modality and control dynamics on human path integration [PDF]
Path integration is a sensorimotor computation that can be used to infer latent dynamical states by integrating self-motion cues. We studied the influence of sensory observation (visual/vestibular) and latent control dynamics (velocity/acceleration) on ...

Not seeing the forest for the trees: combination of path integration and landmark cues in human virtual navigation [PDF]
IntroductionIn order to successfully move from place to place, our brain often combines sensory inputs from various sources by dynamically weighting spatial cues according to their reliability and relevance for a given task.

Principles of Insect Path Integration. [PDF]
Continuously monitoring its position in space relative to a goal is one of the most essential tasks for an animal that moves through its environment. Species as diverse as rats, bees, and crabs achieve this by integrating all changes of direction with the distance covered during their foraging trips, a process called path integration.

A Neural Network Model for Learning 3D Object Representations Through Haptic Exploration
Humans initially learn about objects through the sense of touch, in a process called “haptic exploration.” In this paper, we present a neural network model of this learning process. The model implements two key assumptions.

Multi-Scale Extension in an Entorhinal-Hippocampal Model for Cognitive Map Building
Neuroscience research shows that, by relying on internal spatial representations provided by the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex, mammals are able to build topological maps of environments and navigate.

Path integrals for parastatistics [PDF]
We demonstrate that parastatistics can be quantized using path integrals by calculating the generating functionals for time-ordered products of both free and interacting parabose and parafermi fields in terms of path integrals. We also give a convenient form of the commutation relations for the Green components of the parabose and parafermi operators ...
