Improved, Simpler Neural Controllers for Lamprey Swimming
Swimming for the lamprey (an eel-like fish) is governed by activity in its spinal neural network, called a central pattern generator (CPG). Simpler, alternative controllers can be...

Evolving multi-segment 'super-lamprey' CPG's for increased swimming control
Abstract. `Super-lamprey' swimmers which operate over a greater control range are evolved. Propulsion in the lamprey, an eel-like fish, is governed by activity in its spinal n...

Recruitment of reticulospinal neurones and steady locomotion in lamprey
In lamprey, the supraspinal control of velocity is mainly accomplished by the reticulospinal (RS) system. During locomotion, RS neurones are rhythmically active with a cycle durat...

Dynamic control of spinal locomotion circuits
We show that an ongoing locomotor pattern can that the physiology of the lamprey's spinal system generalizes to be modulated by application of discrete electrical stimuli to l...

A 3-D Biomechanical Model of the Salamander
This article describes a 3D biomechanical simulation of a salamander to be used in experiments in computational neuroethology. The physically-based simulation represents the salama...
