A Spatial Location Representation Method Incorporating Boundary Information
In response to problems concerning the low autonomous localization accuracy of mobile robots in unknown environments and large cumulative errors due to long time running, a spatial location representation method incorporating boundary information (SLRB ...

Summary: Despite ongoing experiential change, neural activity maintains remarkable stability. Although this is thought to be mediated by homeostatic plasticity, what aspect of neural activity is conserved and how the flexibility necessary for learning ...

The hippocampus is thought to guide navigation by forming a cognitive map of space. However, the behavioral demands for such a map can vary depending on particular features of a given environment.

Optimal Population Codes for Space: Grid Cells Outperform Place Cells [PDF]
Rodents use two distinct neuronal coordinate systems to estimate their position: place fields in the hippocampus and grid fields in the entorhinal cortex.

Impaired spatial memory codes in a mouse model of Rett syndrome
The Mecp2+/- mouse model recapitulates many phenotypes of patients with Rett syndrome (RTT), including learning and memory deficits. It is unknown, however, how the disease state alters memory circuit functions in vivo in RTT mice.

Spatial navigation and multiscale representation by hippocampal place cells [PDF]
Hippocampal lesions are known to impair success in navigation tasks. While such tasks could be solved by memorizing complete paths from a starting location to the goal, animals still perform successfully when placed in a novel starting position.

Place, space and memory cells [PDF]
SummarySelf-localization and navigation are critical functions for the survival of mobile animals. By processing sensory information such as landmarks and environmental features, as well as keeping track of the path they have taken, animals are able to remain oriented as they explore the world, learning what resources are where and planning how to ...

The Growing Evidence for the Importance of the Otoliths in Spatial Memory
Many studies have demonstrated that vestibular sensory input is important for spatial learning and memory. However, it has been unclear what contributions the different parts of the vestibular system – the semi-circular canals and otoliths – make to ...

Most vertebrates use active sensing strategies for perception, cognition and control of motor activity. These strategies include directed body/sensor movements or increases in discrete sensory sampling events. The weakly electric fish, Gymnotus sp., uses

Biomimetic SLAM Algorithm Based on Growing Self-Organizing Map
A Biomimetic SLAM Algorithm Based on Growing Self-Organizing Map (GSOM-BSLAM), inspired by spatial cognitive mechanism of mammalian hippocampus, is proposed to resolve uncertainty problems in location identification and lack of real-time performance in ...
