Ever since the groundbreaking work of Ramon y Cajal, the cerebellar cortex has been
recognized as one of the most regularly structured and wired parts of the brain formed by a …

A central criticism of standard theoretical approaches to constructing stable, recurrent model
networks is that the synaptic connection weights need to be finely-tuned. This criticism is …

The inferior olivary nucleus provides one of the two main inputs to the cerebellum: the so-
called climbing fibers. Activation of climbing fibers is generally believed to be related to …

Cerebellar function is increasingly discussed in terms of engineering schemes for motor
control and signal processing that involve internal models. To address the relation between …

Adaptable gain regulation is at the core of the forward controller operation performed by the
cerebro-cerebellar loops and it allows the intensity of motor acts to be finely tuned in a …

The cerebellum integrates sensory stimuli and motor actions to enable smooth coordination
and motor learning. Here we harness the innate behavioral repertoire of the larval zebrafish …

This monograph examines in mathematical terms an open question in neuroscience on the
function of the cerebellum, a major brain region involved in regulation of the motor systems …

Motivation improves performance, pushing us beyond our normal limits. One general
explanation for this is that the effects of neural noise can be reduced, at a cost. If this were …

This work evaluates the capability of a spiking cerebellar model embedded in different loop
architectures (recurrent, forward, and forward&recurrent) to control a robotic arm (three …

High precision control of soft robots is challenging due to their stohcastic behavior and
material-dependent nature. While RL has been applied in soft robotics, achieving precision …
