Explaining facial imitation: a theoretical model
1997
Early development & parenting
We address these issues in a detailed model of the mechanisms underlying facial imitation. The model can be extended to encompass other types of imitation. ...
In imitating, infants attempt to match the organ relations they see exhibited by the adults with those they feel themselves make. ...
We are also grateful to Calle Fisher and Craig Harris for help on the experiments. Funding was provided by a grant from NIH (HD-22514). ...

A computational model of intention reading in imitation
2006
Robotics and Autonomous Systems
The model that we propose draws inspiration from developmental psychology and contains three crucial features. ...
The third feature is that the model does not require an external measure of equivalence; instead, the demonstrator decides whether an attempted imitation was equivalent to the demonstration or not. ...

Hierarchical attentive multiple models for execution and recognition of actions
2006
Robotics and Autonomous Systems
In this paper we review our computational architecture, HAMMER (Hierarchical Attentive Multiple Models for Execution and Recognition), where the motor control systems of a robot are organised in a hierarchical ...
According to the motor theories of perception, the motor systems of an observer are actively involved in the perception of actions when these are performed by a demonstrator. ...
For example, given the current position and speed of the hand and a motor command to move the hand to a certain direction, the predicted next state would be "closer" or "further away" from an object. ...

Brain repair after stroke—a novel neurological model
2013
Nature Reviews Neurology
Our model links brain and behaviour by targeting brain circuits, and we illustrate the model though action observation treatment, which aims to enhance brain network connectivity. ...
We suggest that stroke treatment-from the time of the ictus itself to living with the consequences-must be fundamentally neurological, from limiting the extent of injury at the outset, to repairing the ...
We used our results to generate a model (Figure 1 ) in which connections from posterior superior temporal to inferior parietal cortex, from inferior parietal to ventral premotor cortex, and from ventral ...

Biologically inspired modelling for the control of the upper limb movements: from concept studies to future applications
2009
Frontiers in Neurorobotics
Computational models, simulating the behaviour of complex systems, have often been used in combination with soft computing strategies, thus shifting the rationale of modelling from the description of a ...

Due to the high redundancy of arm movements, most models imitate sub-sets of motor tasks, generally planar and goal-directed. ...

A neural network model of causative actions
2015
Frontiers in Neurorobotics
For instance, to open a door we must perform an action which results in the door opening. This thesis is a study of causative actions of this kind. I first introduce ...
I would also like to thank Tim Neumegen for his early work on this model and for technical help throughout the project. ...
Acknowledgements I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Alistair Knott. Thank you for all your patience, ideas, discussion, and guidance. ...

Conceptual and Computational Models of Mirror Neurons
2005
The Brain & Neural Networks
Current conceptual models of mirror neurons attribute high level functions such as imitation, action understanding and (precursor of) language to mirror neurons. ...
Our metaanalysis underlines the gap between conceptual and computational models and points out the required research effort at both sides to reduce this gap. ...
conceptual model needs attention. ...

The shared circuits model (SCM): How control, mirroring, and simulation can enable imitation, deliberation, and mindreading
2008
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
Commentators were specifically enjoined from writing eulogies and asked to produce the lively intellectual dialogue that Susan Hurley certainly had sought in sending her work to BBS. ...
Kiverstein and Clark undertook not to emulate a response from Susan Hurley, but rather to clarify misunderstandings, organize the commentaries thematically, and show where the research might lead. ...

Do the eyes scan dream images during rapid eye movement sleep? Evidence from the rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder model
2010
Brain
We used the model of rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder (when patients enact their dreams by persistence of muscle tone) to determine directly whether the eyes move in the same directions as the ...
When rapid eye movements accompanied goal-oriented motor behaviour during rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder (e.g. grabbing a fictive object, hand greetings, climbing a ladder), which happened ...
The behaviours (including various types of movements, from mild jerk of an arm to scenic, nearly subtitled, complex behaviours) occurred twice as frequently during REM sleep with REMs compared to sleep ...

Robot Learning by Active Imitation
[chapter]
2007
Humanoid Robots, Human-like Machines
The aim of this attention mechanism is to extract the human head and hands from the scene. The proposed system integrates bottom-up (datadriven) and top-down (model-driven) processing. ...
Biological-plausible attention mechanisms are general approaches to imitate the human attention system and its facility to extract only relevant information from the huge amount of input data. ...
The proposed inverse kinematics method can obtain an arm pose that will put the hand of the model in the required position. ...
