Visuo-Tactile Face Representation through Self-induced Motor Activity
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a learning model that enables a robot to acquire body representation for its face which is invisible to itself while the robot touches it. Two processes are simultaneously carried out: self-organization of tactile sensor unit configuration though the visuo-tactile sensations by self-induced motor behaviors, and facial part detection based on the discontinuity of sensor values.

The robot hand illusion: inducing proprioceptive drift through visuo-motor congruency.
The representation of one's own body sets the border of the self, but also shapes the space where we interact with external objects. Under particular conditions, such as in the rubber hand illusion external objects can be incorporated in one's own body representation, following congruent visuo-tactile stroking of one's own and a fake hand. This procedure induces an illusory sense of ownership f...
متن کاملNot That Heart-Stopping After All: Visuo-Cardiac Synchrony Does Not Boost Self-Face Attribution
Recent experimental evidence and theoretical models suggest that an integration of exteroceptive and interoceptive signals underlies several key aspects of the bodily self. While it has been shown that self-attribution of both the hand and the full-body are altered by conflicting extero-exteroceptive (e.g. visuo-tactile) and extero-interoceptive (e.g. visuo-cardiac) information, no study has th...
متن کاملVisuo-tactile integration and body ownership during self-generated action.
Although there is increasing knowledge about how visual and tactile cues from the hands are integrated, little is known about how self-generated hand movements affect such multisensory integration. Visuo-tactile integration often occurs under highly dynamic conditions requiring sensorimotor updating. Here, we quantified visuo-tactile integration by measuring cross-modal congruency effects (CCEs...
متن کاملIdentifying Oneself with the Face of Someone Else Impairs the Egocentered Visuo-spatial Mechanisms: A New Double Mirror Paradigm to Study Self–other Distinction and Interaction
Looking at our face in a mirror is one of the strongest phenomenological experiences of the Self in which we need to identify the face as reflected in the mirror as belonging to us. Recent behavioral and neuroimaging studies reported that self-face identification not only relies upon visual-mnemonic representation of one's own face but also upon continuous updating and integration of visuo-tact...
متن کاملRubber hand illusion induced by touching the face ipsilaterally to a deprived hand: evidence for plastic “somatotopic” remapping in tetraplegics
BACKGROUND Studies in animals and humans indicate that the interruption of body-brain connections following spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to plastic cerebral reorganization. OBJECTIVE To explore whether inducing the Rubber Hand Illusion (RHI) via synchronous multisensory visuo-tactile bodily stimulation may reveal any perceptual correlates of plastic remapping in SCI. METHODS In 16 paraple...
