摘要
本文给出了一种普遍适用的控制动物运动行为(motor behavioral)的脑机制和控制方法的研究结果.主要工作有以下3个方面:(1)给出了一种控制动物运动行为的思想.即不是像此前那样基于动物的特有生理特点(例如:大鼠的胡须(vibrissae)、昆虫的翅膀)而是基于动物自由活动状态下的共性神经机制,探索和研究与所需运动行为控制相关的脑机制及其脑内代表区(brain representations)和这些代表区内的适宜神经位点(neural sites);通过选取适宜的仿真神经信息编码电信号,刺激所选的相关位点,能够导致所需的运动行为必定发生和运动过程必定可控.(2)提出了明确的研究路线图.即"重点研究感觉(sensory)、动机(motivation)和情绪(emotion)的神经系统与运动行为控制之间关系"的观点,并论述了该观点的神经科学依据.(3)给出了普遍适用的控制动物运动行为的设计原理和方法,并以机器人鸽为例做了实验验证.
Considering the present problem in the field of robo-animals that the motor behavioral control mechanisms in existing cases are all based on the inherent physiological features of animals, the authors present a common brain mechanism of motor behaviors control and control method accordingly. Three aspects are in- volved: (1) Presenting a key research idea based on the common mechanism not its inherent features like rat vibrissae and insect wings, exploring those brain mechanism, brain representations and its functional neural sites related to aim behavior; and ensuring aim behavior to occur and process controllable by stimulating those sites with appropriate encoding signals. (2) Proposing a definite research procedure that focuses on the brain mechanism about the relation among the nervous system of sensory, motivation, emotion and controls of the motor behavior, and discussing its scientific evidence. (3) Giving the principle and method for universally applicable design to control motor behavior of robo-animal, and finally, using "robo-pigeon" to validate the study system in the experiIaent.
