CPG Design using Inhibitory Networks
– We describe in detail the behavior of an inhibitory Central Pattern Generator (CPG) network for robot control. A four-neuron, mutual inhibitory network forms the basic coordina...

Toward Biomorphic Control Using Custom aVLSI CPG Chips
The locomotor controller for walking, running, swimming, and flying animals is based on a Central Pattern Generator (CPG). Models of CPGs as systems of coupled non-linear oscillato...
