Neural Models and Algorithms for Sensorimotor Control of an Octopus Arm
Tixian Wang, Udit Halder, Ekaterina Gribkova +3
In this article, a biophysically realistic model of a soft octopus arm with internal musculature is presented. The modeling is motivated by experimental observations of sensorimoto…
Modeling the Neuromuscular Control System of an Octopus Arm
Tixian Wang, Udit Halder, Ekaterina Gribkova +2
The octopus arm is a neuromechanical system that involves a complex interplay between peripheral nervous system (PNS) and arm musculature. This makes the arm capable of carrying ou…
A Sensory Feedback Control Law for Octopus Arm Movements
Tixian Wang, Udit Halder, Ekaterina Gribkova +3
The main contribution of this paper is a novel sensory feedback control law for an octopus arm. The control law is inspired by, and helps integrate, several observations made by bi…
Bio-inspired Learning of Sensorimotor Control for Locomotion
Tixian Wang, Amirhossein Taghvaei, Prashant G. Mehta
This paper presents a bio-inspired central pattern generator (CPG)-type architecture for learning optimal maneuvering control of periodic locomotory gaits. The architecture is pres…
Q-learning for POMDP: An application to learning locomotion gaits
Tixian Wang, Amirhossein Taghvaei, Prashant G. Mehta
This paper presents a Q-learning framework for learning optimal locomotion gaits in robotic systems modeled as coupled rigid bodies. Inspired by prevalence of periodic gaits in bio…
