For the generation of locomotion, such as walking, running or swimming, vertebrate and invertebrate animals use the Central Pattern Generator (CPG). In this paper, a walking pattern generator is proposed using an evolutionary optimized CPG. Sensory feedback pathways in CPG are proposed, which uses Force Sensing Resistor (FSR) signals. For the optimization of CPG parameters, quantuminspired evol...

Contemporary accounts of control of pacing during endurance exercise focus on physical limitations, generally assuming humans work to that physical limit. Conceptually, control is ceded to the body at the beginning of an exercise bout and is returned to central cognition upon achieving a state of exhaustion. We advance an alternative decision-making model of control of pacing, where the decisio...

The automated alerting system (Event Engine) running at our institution is a well-developed tool for detecting individual clinical events and notifying the clinician with appropriate action suggestions.' However, protocols, critical pathways, and clinical practice guidelines (CPG's) typically involve more than the detection of a single event. Once an initiating event, e.g., a particular diagnos...

Central pattern generators (CPGs) have traditionally been modeled as sets of coupled bistable oscillators (Marder and Calabrese, Physiol. Rev. 76(3) (1996) 687}717). We present a framework for constructing models which avoid the shortcomings of these traditional models, while remaining biologically plausible. We demonstrate our approach by generating a novel model of lamprey locomotion. However...

There are now a reasonable number of invertebrate central pattern generator (CPG) circuits described in sufficient detail that a mechanistic explanation of how they work is possible. These small circuits represent the best-understood neural circuits with which to investigate how cell-to-cell synaptic connections and individual channel conductances combine to generate rhythmic and patterned outp...

In this paper, we propose a new model using central pattern generators (CPG) for the stable motion of Humanoid robot. After that we compare the proposed model with the existing Taga’s model of humanoid robot. The Matsuoka Neural Oscillators are used to generate the required signals to realize the coordinated movement of a musculoskeletal model of humanoid
