Discovering Communication [PDF]
, 2006 What kind of motivation drives child language development? This article presents a computational model and a robotic experiment to articulate the hypothesis that children discover communication as a result of exploring and playing with their environment.

A Sensorimotor Approach to Sound Localization [PDF]
Neural Computation, 2008 Sound localization is known to be a complex phenomenon, combining multisensory information processing, experience-dependent plasticity, and movement. Here we present a sensorimotor model that addresses the question of how an organism could learn to localize sound sources without any a priori neural representation of its head-related transfer function ...

Grounding the Experience of a Visual Field through Sensorimotor Contingencies
, 2017 Artificial perception is traditionally handled by hand-designing task specific algorithms. However, a truly autonomous robot should develop perceptive abilities on its own, by interacting with its environment, and adapting to new situations.

Neural development and sensorimotor control [PDF]
, 2004 What is the relationship between development of the nervous system and the emergence of voluntary motor behavior? This is the central question of the nature-nurture discussion that has intrigued child psychologists and pediatric neurologists for decades.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation over sensorimotor cortex disrupts anticipatory reflex gain modulation for skilled action [PDF]
, 2006 Skilled interactions with new environments require flexible changes to the transformation from somatosensory signals to motor outputs. Transcortical reflex gains are known to be modulated according to task and environmental dynamics, but the mechanism of

Sensorimotor control in Parkinsonism [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1973 Performance on two sensorimotor tasks was compared between 28 patients with Parkinsonism and 28 age and sex matched controls. One task involved complex motor activity (the Bead and Tapper test) and the other simple motor activity with a verbal component (the Letter Cancellation test). Both tests had three levels of complexity.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Multiple sclerosis (MS) exhibits racially disparate rates of disease progression. Black people with MS (B‐PwMS) experience a more severe disease course than non‐Hispanic White people with MS (NHW‐PwMS). Here we investigated structural and functional connectivity as well as structure–function decoupling in the ...
