Paw-Shake Response And Locomotion: Can One Cpg Generate Two Different Rhythmic Behaviors?, Alexander N. Klishko, David Cofer, Gennady Cymbalyuk, Donald H. Edwards, Boris I. Prilutsky

Neuroscience Institute Faculty Publications

Using software AnimatLab we developed a 5-segment cat hindlimb model with 12 Hill-type muscle actuators controlled by (1) a half-center CPG activating flexor and extensor muscles (two-joint muscles received both flexion- and extension-related signals) and (2) proprioceptive input originated from the muscle spindle and Golgi tendon organ afferents.


A Qualitative Optimization Technique For Biophysical Neuron Models With Many Parameters, Robert Clewley, Mirza Dobric Jan 2010

A Qualitative Optimization Technique For Biophysical Neuron Models With Many Parameters, Robert Clewley, Mirza Dobric

Neuroscience Institute Faculty Publications

We present a novel computational technique that enables more efficient optimization of qualitative features in biophysical neural models.


Role Of The Semi-Lunar Process In Locust Jumping, David W. Cofer, James Reid, Ying Zhu, Gennady Cymbalyuk, William J. Heitler, Donald H. Edwards Jan 2007

Role Of The Semi-Lunar Process In Locust Jumping, David W. Cofer, James Reid, Ying Zhu, Gennady Cymbalyuk, William J. Heitler, Donald H. Edwards

Neuroscience Institute Faculty Publications

We have developed a software toolkit, AnimatLab, which allows researchers to build and test virtual organisms. We used this software to build a virtual locust, and then asked how the semi-lunar process is utilized during jumping, and how manipulation or removal of the virtual SLP influences jump dynamics.
