Contextual modulation of a multifunctional central pattern generator.
The multifunctional buccal central pattern generator in snails, which controls different oral behaviors, has been well characterized. In this work we propose a role for the group of about 40 electrotonically coupled buccal A cluster cells as a context-dependant switch for the buccal central pattern generator, modulating motor patterns that elicit different oral behaviors. We characterize these ...
متن کاملPhase and Exact Models for Multifunctional Central Pattern Generators
We compare multistability in central pattern generator (CPG) motifs comprised either of biologically plausible Hodgkin-Huxley models of bursting leech heart interneurons or of phenomenologically reduced phase models. We propose a novel computational tool for detailed examination of polyrhythmic bursting in biophysical CPG models with coupling asymmetries and arbitrary coupling strength. We carr...
متن کاملGait Generation for a Bipedal System By Morris-Lecar Central Pattern Generator
The ability to move in complex environments is one of the most important features of humans and animals. In this work, we exploit a bio-inspired method to generate different gaits in a bipedal locomotion system. We use the 4-cell CPG model developed by Pinto [21]. This model has been established on symmetric coupling between the cells which are responsible for generating oscillatory signals. Th...
متن کاملMultistability in Bursting Patterns in a Model of a Multifunctional Central Pattern Generator
A multifunctional central pattern generator (CPG) can produce bursting polyrhythms that determine locomotive activity in an animal: for example, swimming and crawling in a leech. Each rhythm corresponds to a specific attractor of the CPG. We employ a Hodgkin-Huxley type model of a bursting leech heart interneuron, and connect three such neurons by fast inhibitory synapses to form a ring. This n...
متن کاملControl of Cat Walking and Paw-Shake by a Multifunctional Central Pattern Generator
Central pattern generators (CPGs) are oscillatory neuronal networks controlling rhythmic motor behaviors such as swimming, walking, and breathing. Multifunctional CPGs are capable of producing multiple patterns of rhythmic activity with different periods. Here, we investigate whether two cat rhythmic motor behaviors, walking and paw-shaking, could be controlled by a single multifunctional CPG. ...
