Somatosensory Cortex Plays an Essential Role in Forelimb Motor Adaptation in Mice

Our motor outputs are constantly re-calibrated to adapt to systematic perturbations. This motor adaptation is thought to depend on the ability to form a memory of a systematic perturbation, often called an internal model. However, the mechanisms underlying ...

Feed-Forward based Control in a DC-DC Converter of Asymmetric Multistage Stacked Boost Architecture

Alfred Rufer, Gina Kristin Steinke, Georgios Mademlis

A new feed-forward control technique for a DC-DC step-up converter based on the asymmetric Multistage Stacked Boost Architecture (MSBA) is proposed. The devel-oped feed-forward controller directly handles the load current and the perturbations that may be ...

Hammering Does Not Fit Fitts' Law

Auke Ijspeert, Tadej Petric, Cole Stewart Simpson

While movement is essential to human wellbeing, we are still unable to reproduce the deftness and robustness of human movement in automatons or completely restore function to individuals with many types of motor impairment. To better understand how the hum ...

Direction-Dependent Adaptation of Dynamic Gait Stability Following Waist-Pull Perturbations

Silvestro Micera

Balance recovery during an unexpected disturbance is a complex motor task, where part of the variability depends on the type of the perturbation itself. Despite of this, little is known to what extent adaptation mechanisms to repeated perturbations are dep ...

Variable Duration Movement Encoding with Minimal Intervention Control

Sylvain Calinon

Programming by Demonstration (PbD) offers a user-friendly way of skill transfer from human to robot. Typically, demonstration data do not contain the control inputs required to reproduce the demonstrated skill. These control commands can be obtained from a ...

Bio-inspired balance controller for a humanoid robot

Auke Ijspeert, Renaud Ronsse, Nicolas Benoît Dominique Van der Noot, François André Heremans

Humanoid robots are gaining much interest nowadays. This is partly motivated by the ability of such robots to replace humans in dangerous environments being specifically designed for humans, such as man-made or natural disaster scenarios. However, existing ...

Inferior frontal oscillations reveal visuo-motor matching for actions and speech: evidence from human intracranial recordings

Olaf Blanke, Silvio Ionta, Pär Halje

The neural correspondence between the systems responsible for the execution and recognition of actions has been suggested both in humans and non-human primates. Apart from being a key region of this visuo-motor observation-execution matching (OEM) system, ...

Activating the motor system through action observation: is this an efficient approach in adults and children?

Michela Bassolino

Observing an action performed by another person to learn a new movement is a frequent experience in adult daily life, such as in sports. However, it is an especially common circumstance during the development of motor skills in childhood. Studies on health ...

Kinematic primitives for walking and trotting gaits of a quadruped robot with compliant legs

Auke Ijspeert, Alexander Spröwitz, Mostafa Ajallooeian, Alexandre Tuleu

In this work we research the role of body dynamics in the complexity of kinematic patterns in a quadruped robot with compliant legs. Two gait patterns, lateral sequence walk and trot, along with leg length control patterns of different complexity were impl ...

Disrupting the ipsilateral motor cortex interferes with training of a complex motor task in older adults

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

Performance of unimanual movements is associated with bihemispheric activity in the motor cortex in old adults. However, the causal functional role of the ipsilateral MC (iMC) for motor control is still not completely known. Here, the behavioral consequenc ...
