Automated visual cognitive tasks for recording neural activity using a floor projection maze.
Neuropsychological tasks used in primates to investigate mechanisms of learning and memory are typically visually guided cognitive tasks. We have developed visual cognitive tasks for rats using the Floor Projection Maze(1,2) that are optimized for visual abilities of rats permitting stronger comparisons of experimental findings with other species. In order to investigate neural correlates of le...
متن کاملModulation of Anxiety-Like Behavior in Sildenafil Citrate-Treated Mice Placed in an Elevated Plus-Maze
Introduction: Sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitor, may have various effects on the central nervous system via the nitric oxide (NO)-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway. Preclinical studies have shown the controversial effect of sildenafil on anxiety-like behavior in animals. This study was undertaken to investigate the acute effect of sildenafil on anxiety-like behavior...
متن کاملEvolving internal memory for T-maze tasks in noisy environments
In autonomous agent systems, internal memory can be an important element to overcome the limitations of purely reactive agent behaviour. This paper presents an analysis of memory requirements for T-maze tasks well known as the road sign problem. In these tasks a robot agent should make a decision of turning left or right at the T-junction in the approach corridor, depending on a history of perc...
متن کاملCooperation of Multiple Robots to Solve Maze Tasks
This paper discusses the use of cooperation and distributed intelligence within a robot team to solve a maze problem in which a set of ordered control point tasks has to be performed before the robots exit the maze. At first, the maze structure and the control point locations are unknown. While the maze is explored, each robot dynamically maps the maze structure with information provided by its...
متن کاملEvidence for social cooperation in rodents by automated maze
Social cooperation is defined as a joint action for mutual benefit that depends on the individual and the counterparts' behaviors. To gain valid evidence for social cooperation behavior we conducted a series of experiments in our suggested fully automated non-conditioned maze and depicted three major findings: (i) During 18 days of training the rats showed a progressive social learning curve as...
