Abstract
A nervous system emulator engine includes working computational models of the vertebrate nervous system to generate lifelike animal behavior in a robot. These models include functions representing several anatomical features of the vertebrate nervous system, such as spinal cord, brainstem, basal ganglia, thalamus, and cortex. The emulator engine includes a hierarchy of controllers in which controllers at higher levels accomplish goals by continuously specifying desired goals for lower-level controllers. The lowest levels of the hierarchy reflect spinal cord circuits that control muscle tension and length. Moving up the hierarchy into the brainstem and midbrain/cortex, progressively more abstract perceptual variables are controlled. The nervous system emulator engine may be used to build a robot that generates the majority of animal behavior, including human behavior. The nervous system emulator engine may also be used to build working models of nervous system functions for clinical experimentation.
