A Novel Self-Organizing PID Approach for Controlling Mobile Robot Locomotion [PDF]

open access: yes2020 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE), 2020
A novel self-organizing fuzzy proportional-integral-derivative (SOF-PID) control system is proposed in this paper. The proposed system consists of a pair of control and reference models, both of which are implemented by a first-order autonomous learning multiple model (ALMMo) neuro-fuzzy system.

Spontaneous Gait Transitions of Sprawling Quadruped Locomotion by Sensory-Driven Body–Limb Coordination Mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2021
Deciphering how quadrupeds coordinate their legs and other body parts, such as the trunk, head, and tail (i.e., body–limb coordination), can provide informative insights to improve legged robot mobility.

Emergence of behaviour in a self-organized living matter network

open access: yeseLife, 2022
What is the origin of behaviour? Although typically associated with a nervous system, simple organisms also show complex behaviours. Among them, the slime mold Physarum polycephalum, a giant single cell, is ideally suited to study emergence of behaviour.

Adaptive Centipede Walking via Synergetic Coupling Between Decentralized Control and Flexible Body Dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022
Multi-legged animals such as myriapods can locomote on unstructured rough terrain using their flexible bodies and legs. This highly adaptive locomotion emerges through the dynamic interactions between an animal’s nervous system, its flexible body, and ...

Self-organized mechano-chemical dynamics in amoeboid locomotion of Physarum fragments [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2017
Abstract The aim of this work is to quantify the spatio-temporal dynamics of flow-driven amoeboid locomotion in small (∼100 μ m) fragments of the true slime mold Physarum polycephalum .

A computational framework for testing hypotheses of the minimal mechanical requirements for cell aggregation using early annual killifish embryogenesis as a model

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Introduction: Deciphering the biological and physical requirements for the outset of multicellularity is limited to few experimental models. The early embryonic development of annual killifish represents an almost unique opportunity to investigate de ...

Generation of Locomotive Patterns and Self-Organization

open access: yesJournal of Robotics and Mechatronics, 1992
Rhythmic movements of walking, swimming, etc. are controlled by mutually coupled endogenous neural oscillators. These rhythms coordinate one another to generate temporal and spatial moving patterns suitable for their environments and purposes. For example, a cat moves faster, the gait patterns change from “walk” to “trot”, and lastly to “gallop”.

From spontaneous motor activity to coordinated behaviour: a developmental model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2014
In mammals, the developmental path that links the primary behaviours observed during foetal stages to the full fledged behaviours observed in adults is still beyond our understanding.
