A Realization of Goal-directed Behavior - Implementing a Robot Model based on Cortico-Striato-Thalamic Circuits
نویسندگان
چکیده
Computational models of cognitive processes based on neural substrates clarify our understanding of the ongoing mechanisms during these high order processes. These models also inspire new approaches and techniques for implementing intelligent systems. Here, an implementation of goal-directed behaviour on Khepera II mobile robot will be presented. The main point of this work is to show the potential use of robot models for tasks requiring high order processes like goal-directed behaviour.

A Computational Model of Cortico-Striato-Thalamic Circuits in Goal-Directed Behaviour
A connectionist model of cortico-striato-thalamic loops unifying learning and action selection is proposed. The aim in proposing the connectionist model is to develop a simple model revealing the mechanisms behind the cognitive process of goal directed behaviour rather than merely obtaining a model of neural structures. In the proposed connectionist model, the action selection is realized by a ...
متن کاملNoradrenergic control of cortico-striato-thalamic and mesolimbic cross-structural synchrony.
Although normal dopaminergic tone has been shown to be essential for the induction of cortico-striatal and mesolimbic theta oscillatory activity, the influence of norepinephrine on these brain networks remains relatively unknown. To address this question, we simultaneously recorded local field potentials and single-neuron activity across 10 interconnected brain areas (ventral striatum, frontal ...
متن کاملCortico-Striatal-Thalamic Loop Circuits of the Salience Network: A Central Pathway in Psychiatric Disease and Treatment
The salience network (SN) plays a central role in cognitive control by integrating sensory input to guide attention, attend to motivationally salient stimuli and recruit appropriate functional brain-behavior networks to modulate behavior. Mounting evidence suggests that disturbances in SN function underlie abnormalities in cognitive control and may be a common etiology underlying many psychiatr...

متن کاملThe Effects of Psychopharmacologic and Therapeutic Approaches on Neuro-imaging in Obsessive-compulsive Disorder
The neurobiological etiopathogenesis of OCD is still obscure. Neuroimaging studies have been very influential in shaping neurobiological models of OCD. Investigations performed within last twenty years have revealed some important findings and proposed that specific cortico-striato-thalamic circuits are involved in the mediation of its symptoms. The effects of antiobsessional drugs and cognitiv...
