A simple translation in cortical log-coordinates may account for the pattern of saccadic localization errors
During saccadic eye movements, the visual world shifts rapidly across the retina. Perceptual continuity is thought to be maintained by active neural mechanisms that compensate for ...

Perceptual dominance time distributions in multistable visual perception
Abstract. Perceptual multistability, alternative perceptions of an unchanging stimulus, gives important clues to neural dynamics. The present study examined 56 perceptual dominance...

Is sparse and distributed the coding goal of simple cells?
Abstract. The question of why the receptive fields of simple cells in the primary visual cortex are Gabor-like is a crucial one in vision research. Many research efforts (Olshausen...

Contribution of stretch reflexes to locomotor control: a modeling study
It is known that the springlike properties of muscles provide automatic load compensation during weight bearing. How crucial is sensory control of the motor output given these basi...

Analysis of mechanical impedance in human arm movements using a virtual tennis system
The dynamic characteristics of human upper extremities are usually expressed by mechanical impedance. Although many studies have discussed human impedance characteristics, there ar...

A model of force and impedance in human arm movements
This paper describes a simple computational model of joint torque and impedance in human arm movements that can be used to simulate three-dimensional movements of the (redundant) a...

Dynamics and stability of insect locomotion: a hexapedal model for horizontal plane motions
We develop a simple hexapedal model for the dynamics of insect locomotion in the horizontal plane. Each leg is a linear spring endowed with two inputs, controlling force-free lengt...

An adaptive neuro-fuzzy method ( ANFIS) for estimating single-trial movement-related potentials
Abstract. This study aims to recover transient, trialvarying evoked potentials (EPs), in particular the movement-related potentials (MRPs), embedded within the background cerebral ...

Measuring information transfer in the spike generator of crayfish sustaining fibers
Abstract. We present a method based on informationtheoretic distances for measuring the information transfer efficiency of voltage to impulse encoders. In response to light pulses,...

Signaling contours by neuromorphic wave propagation
Abstract. We describe a neuromorphic retina that signals a luminance edge as a spike. In a fast process, the luminance profile of the receptor layer determines the membrane potenti...
