Hierarchical visuomotor control of humanoids (2018, background): “In motor neuroscience, studies of spinal reflexes in animals ranging from frogs to cats have led to the view that locomotion and reaching are highly prestructured, enabling subcortical structures such as the basal ganglia to coordinate a motor repertoire; and cortical systems with access to visual i”
Neural probabilistic motor primitives for humanoid control (2018, background): “…is widespread in neuroscience, where there is evidence that lower dimensional control signals can selectively coordinate and blend behaviors produced by spinal circuits (Bizzi et al., 2008), or that the cortex organizes the behavioral space of primitive motor be-2 haviors (Graziano, 2006).”
Muscle synergy patterns as physiological markers of motor cortical damage (2012, background): “In the last few years, we and others (2, 3) have pursued this approach to shed light on old questions such as how the motor system circumvents the need to control its large number of degrees of freedom (4) through a flexible combination of motor modules in both animals and humans.”
