How does navigation system behavior influence human behavior?

Cognitive Research, 2019
Navigation systems are ubiquitous tools to assist wayfinders of the mobile information society with various navigational tasks. Whenever such systems assist with self-localization and path planning, they reduce human effort for navigating.

Spatial encoding in primate hippocampus during free navigation. [PDF]

, 2019
The hippocampus comprises two neural signals-place cells and θ oscillations-that contribute to facets of spatial navigation. Although their complementary relationship has been well established in rodents, their respective contributions in the primate ...

Olfaction Contributes to Pelagic Navigation in a Coastal Shark. [PDF]

, 2016
How animals navigate the constantly moving and visually uniform pelagic realm, often along straight paths between distant sites, is an enduring mystery. The mechanisms enabling pelagic navigation in cartilaginous fishes are particularly understudied.

Hippocampus and retrosplenial cortex combine path integration signals for successful navigation [PDF]

, 2013
The current study used fMRI in humans to examine goal-directed navigation in an open field environment. We designed a task that required participants to encode survey-level spatial information and subsequently navigate to a goal location in either first ...

Easy rider: monkeys learn to drive a wheelchair to navigate through a complex maze. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The neurological bases of spatial navigation are mainly investigated in rodents and seldom in primates. The few studies led on spatial navigation in both human and non-human primates are performed in virtual, not in real environments.

Navigation of brain networks [PDF]

, 2018
Understanding the mechanisms of neural communication in large-scale brain networks remains a major goal in neuroscience. We investigated whether navigation is a parsimonious routing model for connectomics. Navigating a network involves progressing to the

Virtual reality in neurologic rehabilitation of spatial disorientation

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2013
Background Topographical disorientation (TD) is a severe and persistent impairment of spatial orientation and navigation in familiar as well as new environments and a common consequence of brain damage.

Electrophysiological Signatures of Spatial Boundaries in the Human Subiculum. [PDF]

, 2018
Environmental boundaries play a crucial role in spatial navigation and memory across a wide range of distantly related species. In rodents, boundary representations have been identified at the single-cell level in the subiculum and entorhinal cortex of ...

Spatial navigation ability predicts progression of dementia symptomatology

Alzheimer's & Dementia, 2020
Spatial navigation deficits are observed in Alzheimer's disease cross‐sectionally, but prediction of longitudinal clinical decline has been less examined.

Transformation of spatial representations along hippocampal circuits

iScience
Summary: The hippocampus is thought to provide the brain with a cognitive map of the external world by processing various types of spatial information.
