متن کاملRegarding Compass Response Functions For Modeling Path Integration: Comment on "Evolving a Neural Model of Insect Path Integration"
Recently, Haferlach, Wessnitzer, Mangan, and Webb (2007) reported on the production of a novel neural model of the animal behavior known as path integration, a navigation process requiring a compass and an odometer. Here, we comment on comparisons that their paper makes with our earlier work (Vickerstaff & Di Paolo, 2005) where we also evolved a neural model of path integration. The authors mak...
متن کاملEvolving neural models of path integration.
We use a genetic algorithm to evolve neural models of path integration, with particular emphasis on reproducing the homing behaviour of Cataglyphis fortis ants. This is done within the context of a complete model system, including an explicit representation of the animal's movements within its environment. We show that it is possible to produce a neural network without imposing a priori any par...
متن کاملFirst Steps in Evolving Path Integration in Simulation
Path integration is a widely used method of navigation in nature whereby an animal continuously tracks its location by integrating its motion over the course of a journey. Many mathematical models of this process exist, as do at least two hand designed neural network models. Two one dimensional distance measuring tasks are here presented as a simplified analogy of path integration and as a firs...
متن کاملA Neural Model of Visual Contour Integration
We introduce a neurobiologically plausible model of contour integration from visual inputs of individual oriented edges. The model is composed of interacting excitatory neurons and inhibitory interneurons, receives visual inputs via oriented receptive fields (RFs) like those in VI. The RF centers are distributed in space. At each location, a finite number of cells tuned to orientations spanning...
