简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Whether conducted as pure research or as a way to address a specific condition or illness, this discipline necessarily includes studies of biological systems, theory, computation, technology, information processing, artificial implementation of biological information processing and self-organization principles. The six articles here cover these studies, whether alone or in combination, and include brain-emulating cognition and control architecture (used in robot control, natural language processing, and visual perception), two-variable models that form a basis for further investigation of neuronal information processing mechanisms, predictive oculomotor tracking and its stability (based on relationships amongst dynamical systems, information theory and probability), novel tools for simulating human trajectory formation in complex whole-body tasks, suppression of neuromuscular noise through impedance modulation, and human-like control strategies to improve rehabilitation exercises using electrical simulation to create biomimetic neuroprostheses. References are fairly up to date, but readers should verify data independently.
