A robotic closed-loop scheme to model human postural coordination

— This paper models recent data in the field of postural coordination showing the existence of self-organized postural states, and transition between them, underlying suprapostural tracking movements. The proposed closed-loop controller captures the complex postural behaviors observed in humans and can be used to implement efficient and simple balance control principles in humanoids.
