Abstract. Rats and other whiskered mammals are capable of making sophisticated sensory discriminations using tactile signals from their facial whiskers (vibrissae). As part of a pr...

The cerebellum plays a major role in motor control. It is thought to mediate the acquisition of forward and inverse internal models of the bodyenvironment interaction [1]. In this ...
Abstract. In this work, we are interested in understanding how emotional interactions with a social partner can bootstrap increasingly complex behaviors such as social referencing....

Reinforcement learning is one of the main adaptive mechanisms that is both well documented in animal behaviour and giving rise to computational studies in animats and robots. In th...
Prefrontal cortex (PFC) has been implicated in the ability to switch behavioral strategies in response to changes in reward contingencies. A recent experimental study has shown tha...
Abstract. Neurobiological studies showed the important role of Centeral Pattern Generators for spinal cord in the control and sensory feedback of animals' locomotion. In this ...

We present a branch-and-bound algorithm for minimizing a convex quadratic objective function over integer variables subject to convex constraints. In a given node of the enumerati...
We benchmark the Covariance Matrix Adaptation-Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) algorithm with an Increasing POPulation size (IPOP) restart policy on the BBOB noiseless testbed. The IPO...
