According to modern views of the cerebellum in motor control, each cerebellar functional unit, or microzone, learns how to
execute predictive and coordinative control, based on long-term depression of the granule cell-Purkinje cell synapses. In
the present paper, in light of recent experimental and theoretical studies on synaptic elimination and cerebellar motor learning,
a model of the formation of cerebellar microzones by climbing fiber synaptic elimination is proposed. It is shown that competition
for an activity-dependent supply of neurotrophic factor can reproduce the spatio-temporal characteristics of climbing fiber
synaptic elimination. It is further shown that when this elimination is accurate, motor coordination can be acquired in an
arm reaching task. In view of the results of the present study, several predictions are proposed.

One of the theories of human motor control is the λ Equilibrium Point Hypothesis. It is an attractive theory since it offers
an easy control scheme where the planned trajectory shifts monotionically from an initial to a final equilibrium state. The
feasibility of this model was tested by reconstructing the virtual trajectory and the stiffness profiles for movements performed
with different inertial loads and examining them. Three types of movements were tested: passive movements, targeted movements,
and repetitive movements. Each of the movements was performed with five different inertial loads. Plausible virtual trajectories
and stiffness profiles were reconstructed based on the λ Equilibrium Point Hypothesis for the three different types of movements
performed with different inertial loads. However, the simple control strategy supported by the model, where the planned trajectory
shifts monotonically from an initial to a final equilibrium state, could not be supported for targeted movements performed
with added inertial load. To test the feasibility of the model further we must examine the probability that the human motor
control system would choose a trajectory more complicated than the actual trajectory to control.

The assumption is made that the formulation of relations as independent components (IC) is a main feature of computations
accomplished by the brain. Further, it is assumed that memory traces made of non-orthonormal ICs make use of feedback architectures
to form internal representations. Feedback then leads to delays, and delays in cortical processing form an obstacle to this
relational processing. The problem of delay compensation is formulated as a speed-field tracking task and is solved by a novel
control architecture. It is shown that in addition to delay compensation the control architecture can also shape long-term
memories to hold independent components if a two-phase operation mode is assumed. Features such as a trisynaptic loop and
a recurrent collateral structure at the second stage of that loop emerge in a natural fashion. Based on these properties a
functional model of the hippocampal loop is constructed.

The aim of this paper is to carry out a stability analysis for periodic breathing in humans that incorporates the dynamic
characteristics of ventilation control. A simple CO2 model that takes into account the main elements of the respiratory system, i.e. the lungs and the ventilatory controller
with its dynamic properties, is presented. This model results in a three-dimensional non-linear delay differential system
for which there exists a unique equilibrium point. Our stability analysis of this equilibrium point leads to the definition
of a new explicit stability criterion and to the demonstration of the existence of a Hopf bifurcation. Numerical simulations
illustrate the influence of physiological parameters on the stability of ventilation, and particularly the major role of the
dynamic characteristics of the respiratory controller.

Transitions between distinct kinetic states of an ion channel are described by a Markov process. Hidden Markov models (HMM)
have been successfully applied in the analysis of single ion channel recordings with a small signal-to-noise ratio. However,
we have recently shown that the anti-aliasing low-pass filter misleads parameter estimation. Here, we show for the case of
a Na+ channel recording that the standard HMM do neither allow parameter estimation nor a correct identification of the gating
scheme. In particular, the number of closed and open states is determined incorrectly, whereas a modified HMM considering
the anti-aliasing filter (moving-average filtered HMM) is able to reproduce the characteristic properties of the time series
and to perform gating scheme identification.

We propose a novel model of visual contrast measurement based on segregated On and Off pathways. Two driving forces have shaped our investigation: (1) establishing a mechanism selective for sharp local transitions
in the luminance distribution; (2) generating a robust scheme of oriented contrast detection. Our starting point was the architecture
of early stages in the mammalian visual system. We show that the circuit behaves as a soft AND-gate and analyze the scale-space
selectivity properties of the model in detail. The theoretical analysis is supplemented by computer simulations in which we
selectively investigate key functionalities of the proposed contrast detection scheme. We demonstrate that the model is capable
of successfully processing synthetic as well as natural images, thus illustrating the potential of the method for computer
vision applications.

A mathematical model is developed with a highly controlled birth and death process for precursor cells. This model is both
biologically- and statistically-based. The controlled growth and differentiation (CGD) model limits the number of replications
allowed in the development of a tissue or organ and thus, more closely reflects the presence of a true stem cell population.
Leroux et al. (1996) presented a biologically-based dose-response model for developmental toxicology that was derived from a partial differential
equation for the generating function. This formulation limits further expansion into more realistic models of mammalian development.
The same formulae for the probability of a defect (a system of ordinary differential equations) can be derived through the
Kolmogorov forward equations due to the nature of this Markov process. This modified approach is easily amenable to the expansion
of more complicated models of the developmental process such as the one presented here. Comparisons between the Leroux et al. (1996) model and the controlled growth and differentiation (CGD) model as developed in this paper are also discussed.

Reaching movement is a fast movement towards a given target. The main characteristics of such a movement are straight path
and a bell-shaped speed profile. In this work a mathematical model for the control of the human arm during ballistic reaching
movements is presented. The model of the arm contains a 2 degrees of freedom planar manipulator, and a Hill-type, non-linear
mechanical model of six muscles. The arm model is taken from the literature with minor changes. The nervous system is modeled
as an adjustable pattern generator that creates the control signals to the muscles. The control signals in this model are
rectangular pulses activated at various amplitudes and timings, that are determined according to the given target. These amplitudes
and timings are the parameters that should be related to each target and initial conditions in the workspace. The model of
the nervous system consists of an artificial neural net that maps any given target to the parameter space of the pattern generator.
In order to train this net, the nervous system model includes a sensitivity model that transforms the error from the arm end-point
coordinates to the parameter coordinates. The error is assessed only at the termination of the movement from knowledge of
the results.
The role of the non-linearity in the muscle model and the performance of the learning scheme are analysed, illustrated in
simulations and discussed. The results of the present study demonstrate the central nervous system’s (CNS) ability to generate
typical reaching movements with a simple feedforward controller that controls only the timing and amplitude of rectangular
excitation pulses to the muscles and adjusts these parameters based on knowledge of the results. In this scheme, which is
based on the adjustment of only a few parameters instead of the whole trajectory, the dimension of the control problem is
reduced significantly. It is shown that the non-linear properties of the muscles are essential to achieve this simple control.
This conclusion agrees with the general concept that motor control is the result of an interaction between the nervous system
and the musculoskeletal dynamics.

Freely flying bees were filmed as they landed on a flat, horizontal surface, to investigate the underlying visuomotor control
strategies. The results reveal that (1) landing bees approach the surface at a relatively shallow descent angle; (2) they
tend to hold the angular velocity of the image of the surface constant as they approach it; and (3) the instantaneous speed
of descent is proportional to the instantaneous forward speed. These characteristics reflect a surprisingly simple and effective
strategy for achieving a smooth landing, by which the forward and descent speeds are automatically reduced as the surface
is approached and are both close to zero at touchdown. No explicit knowledge of flight speed or height above the ground is
necessary. A model of the control scheme is developed and its predictions are verified. It is also shown that, during landing,
the bee decelerates continuously and in such a way as to keep the projected time to touchdown constant as the surface is approached. The feasibility of this landing strategy is demonstrated by implementation in a robotic gantry
equipped with vision.

The modulation of neuromusculoskeletal impedance during movements is analysed using a motor control model of the human arm.
The motor control system combines feedback and feedforward control and both control modes are determined in one optimization
process. In the model, the stiffness varies at the double movement frequency for 2-Hz oscillatory elbow movements and has
high values at the movement reversals. During goal-directed two-degrees-of-freedom arm movements, the stiffness is decreased
during the movement and may be increased in the initial and final phases, depending on the movement velocity. The stiffness
has a considerable curl during the movement, as was also observed in experimental data. The dynamic stiffness patterns of
the model can be explained basically by the α−γ coactivation scheme where feedback gains covary with motor control signals.
In addition to the modulation of the gain factors, it is argued that the variation of the intrinsic stiffness has a considerable
effect on movement control, especially during fast movements.

In this paper, we present an iterative manual control model of a human operator performing some repetitive task. Various
aspects of the model are discussed in detail. Experiments have been done to study the human capability to perform the tasks
by learning iteratively. Results of the experiments show the ability of the human operator to perform the tracking of a desired
trajectory for some unknown non-linear system with quite reasonable accuracy during the iteration process. It is concluded
that the human operator performs the repetitive task by modifying his control action using error and error rate in each iteration.
During the modification, the human operator assigns different weights to the error and error rate in each iteration. These
results can be implemented in designing more efficient iterative learning control algorithms.

Presented in this paper is a neural network model that can be used to investigate the possible self-organizing mechanisms
occurring during the early ontogeny of spinal neural circuits in the vertebrate motor system. The neural circuit is composed
of multiple types of neurons which correspond to motorneurons, Renshaw cells and a hypothetical class of interneurons. While
the connectivity of this circuit is genetically predetermined, the efficacies of these connections – the synaptic s
trengths – evolve in accordance with activity-dependent mechanisms which are initiated by the intrinsic, autonomous activity
present in the developing spinal cord. Using Oja's rule, a modified Hebbian learning scheme for adjusting the values of the
connections, the network stably self-organizes developing, in the process, reciprocally activated motorneuron pools analogous
to those which exist in vivo.

Studies on drawing circles with both hands in the horizontal plane have shown that this task is easy to perform across a
wide range of movement frequencies under the symmetrical mode of coordination, whereas under the asymmetrical mode (both limbs
moving clockwise or counterclockwise) increases in movement frequency have a disruptive effect on trajectory control and hand
coordination. To account for these interference effects, we propose a simplified computer model for bimanual circle drawing
based on the assumptions that (1) circular trajectories are generated from two orthogonal oscillations coupled with a phase
delay, (2) the trajectories are organized on two levels, “intention” and “motor execution”, and (3) the motor systems controlling
each hand are prone to neural cross-talk. The neural cross-talk consists in dispatching some fraction of any force command
sent to one limb as a mirror image to the other limb. Assuming predominating coupling influences from the dominant to the
nondominant limb, the simulations successfully reproduced the main characteristics of performance during asymmetrical bimanual
circle drawing with increasing movement frequencies, including disruption of the circular form drawn with the nondominant
hand, increasing dephasing of the hand movements, increasing variability of the phase difference, and occasional reversals
of the movement direction in the nondominant limb. The implications of these results for current theories of bimanual coordination
are discussed.

The paper proposes a model for the control of a multisegmented manipulator with redundant degrees of freedom. On the basis
of an earlier model, the so-called MMC net, a simplified version is proposed here which has several advantages. First, it
can easily be scaled up for the 3D case. Second, for the linear version a complete convergence proof is possible. Third, an
easy way of implementing a damping parameter is shown. Fourth, the properties of the earlier model are unchanged, namely versatile
control of the redundant system, immediate change from direct kinematics to inverse kinematics or any mixed control task,
as well as robustness in the case of singularities.

The influence of the Jendrassik maneuver on the generation of the locomotor rhythmicity was studied under conditions of the
“suspension” of legs in a horizontal plane. It was shown that during Jendrassik’s maneuver, passive movements of one limb
trigger stepping with the participation of both limbs. The Jendrassik’s maneuver also notably facilitates the vibration-induced
locomotion. The kinematics of the evoked stepping movements did not differ from the kinematics of the voluntary “air-stepping,”
reciprocal electromyographic activity being observed in antagonistic muscles. It seems likely that the generation of cyclic
movements during the Jendrassik maneuver occurs due to the activation of the same stepping automatism as in normal stepping.
The experimental results suggest that an increase in the level of tonic readiness of the tonogenic CNS structures, which participate
in realization of the locomotor program, is a necessary condition for the activation of the spinal mechanisms of the stepping
generation. 相似文献

The mechanical impedance of neuromusculoskeletal models of the human arm is studied in this paper. The model analysis provides
a better understanding of the contributions of possible intrinsic and reflexive components of arm impedance, makes clear the
limitations of second-order mass-viscosity-stiffness models and reveals possible task effects on the impedance. The musculoskeletal
model describes planar movements of the upper arm and forearm, which are moved by six lumped muscles with nonlinear dynamics.
The motor control system is represented by a neural network which combines feedforward and feedback control. It is optimized
for the control of movements or for posture control in the presence of external forces. The achieved impedance characteristics
depend on the conditions during the learning process. In particular, the impedance is adapted in a suitable way to the frequency
content and direction of external forces acting on the hand during an isometric task. The impedance characteristics of a model,
which is optimized for movement control, are similar to experimental data in the literature. The achieved stiffness is, to
a large extent, reflexively determined whereas the approximated viscosity is primarily due to intrinsic attributes. It is
argued that usually applied Hill-type muscle models do not properly represent intrinsic muscle stiffness.

A double-inverted pendulum model of body oscillations in the frontal plane during stepping [Brenière and Ribreau (1998) Biol
Cybern 79: 337–345] proposed an equivalent model for studying the body oscillating behavior induced by step frequency in the
form of: (1) a kinetic body parameter, the natural body frequency (NBF), which contains gravity and which is invariable for
humans, (2) a parametric function of frequency, whose parameter is the NBF, which explicates the amplitude ratio of center
of mass to center of foot pressure oscillation, and (3) a function of frequency which simulates the equivalent torque necessary
for the control of the head-arms-trunk segment oscillations. Here, this equivalent model is used to simulate the duration
of gait initiation, i.e., the duration necessary to initiate and execute the first step of gait in subgravity, as well as
to calculate the step frequencies that would impose the same minimum and maximum amplitudes of the oscillating responses of
the body center of mass, whatever the gravity value. In particular, this simulation is tested under the subgravity conditions
of the Moon, Mars, and Phobos, where gravity is 1/6, 3/8, and 1/1600 times that on the Earth, respectively. More generally,
the simulation allows us to establish and discuss the conditions for gait adaptability that result from the biomechanical
constraints particular to each gravity system.

A central issue in the study of alloprimate vocalizations concerns the extent of the animal's control over vocalization production.
Two competing models are the semanticity model which states that vocalizations contain an environmental referent, and the
level-of-arousal model which states that vocalizations are an emotional product of differential internal states of arousal.
One source of evidence bearing on this issue is the operant control of vocalizations by alloprimates. This paper presents
a comprehensive review of 12 attempts to condition operantly alloprimate vocalizations. These 12 experiments are analyzed
in terms of various subject and procedural variables, including the age, species and sex of the subject, and the type of task
and reward used. The results of this analysis indicate the following: Primates are able to control their own vocal output
with considerable success; species, age and sex variables place no restriction upon this ability. In addition, the appropriateness
of the reinforcer influenced the success rate of the experiment. These results are interpreted as supporting evidence for
the semanticity model of vocal production. Results are discussed in terms of an “ecologically-appropriate hypothesis.”

Finger forces are known to change involuntarily during multi-finger force-production tasks, even when a finger's involvement
in a task is not consciously changed (the enslaving effect). Furthermore, during maximal force-production (MVC) tests, the force produced by a given finger in a multi-finger task is
smaller than the force generated by this finger in its single-finger MVC test (the force-deficit effect). A set of hypothetical control variables – modes – is introduced. Modes can be estimated based on individual finger forces
during single-finger MVC tests. We show that a simple formal model based on modes with only one free parameter accounts for
finger forces during a variety of multi-finger MVC tests. The free parameter accounts for the force-deficit effect, and its
value depends only on the number of explicitly involved fingers. This approach offers a simple framework for the analysis
of finger interaction during multi-finger actions.
