Brain evolution in bats (Mammalia, Chiroptera): auditory, Olfactory and Sensorimotor systems [PDF]
, 2002 Data for brain structure volumes was analysed using multiple regression to test for correlated volumetric evolution in bats (Mammalia, Chiroptera). Significant partial correlations were found between major brain subdivisions, and between structures ...

Attention-related modulation of caudate neurons depends on superior colliculus activity
eLife, 2020 Recent work has implicated the primate basal ganglia in visual perception and attention, in addition to their traditional role in motor control. The basal ganglia, especially the caudate nucleus ‘head’ (CDh) of the striatum, receive indirect anatomical ...

Predicting the consequences of our own actions: the role of sensorimotor context estimation [PDF]
, 1998 During self-generated movement it is postulated that an efference copy of the descending motor command, in conjunction with an internal model of both the motor system and environment, enables us to predict the consequences of our own actions (von ...

Developmental Coordination Disorder: The Importance of Grounded Assessments and Interventions
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 This focused review is based on earlier studies which have shown that both children and adults diagnosed as having developmental coordination disorder (DCD), benefited from sensorimotor therapy according to the method Retraining for Balance (RB ...

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2018 Background High-frequency alternating currents of greater than 1 kHz applied on peripheral nerves has been used in animal studies to produce a motor nerve block. It has been evidenced that frequencies higher than 5 kHz are necessary to produce a complete

Sensorimotor event: an approach to the dynamic, embodied, and embedded nature of sensorimotor cognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 In this paper, I explore the notion of sensorimotor event as the building block of sensorimotor cognition. A sensorimotor event is presented here as a neurally controlled event that recruits those processes and elements that are necessary to address the demands of the situation in which the individual is involved.

Manifold-Based Sensorimotor Representations for Bootstrapping of Mobile Agents [PDF]
, 2020 Subject of this thesis is the development of a domain-independent algorithm that allows an autonomous system to process sequences of the sensorimotor interaction with its environment and to assign a geometric interpretation to its motor capabilities.
