This paper proposes a stable modifiable walking pattern generator with a vertical foot motion generated by a central pattern generator that is obtained from the evolutionary constrained optimization. A modifiable walking pattern generator is employed which generates sagittal and lateral position trajectories of center of mass of humanoid robot and a CPG generates the vertical foot trajectory of...

We have explored the role of the interaction of slow and fast intracellular dynamics in generating precise spiking-bursting activity in a model of the heartbeat central pattern generator of the leech. In particular we study the effect of calcium-dependent currents on the neural signatures generated in the circuit. These neural signatures are cell-specific interspike intervals in the spiking-bur...

The problem of allocating maxmin rates with minimum rate constraints for connection-oriented networks is considered. This paper proves that the convergence of maxmin rate allocation satisfies a partial ordering in the bottleneck links. This partial ordering leads to a tighter lower bound for the convergence time for any maxmin protocol. An optimally fast maxmin rate allocation protocol called t...
