Anticipatory planning in object manipulation: A cross-sectional investigation of children, young adults and older adults
(University of Waterloo, 2016-08-25)Over a series of five studies, this work aimed to investigate anticipatory planning in object manipulation across the human lifespan. Main objectives were to: (a) understand the influence of the movement context; (b) ... -
NOCH: A framework for biologically plausible models of neural motor control
(University of Waterloo, 2010-01-20)This thesis examines the neurobiological components of the motor control system and relates it to current control theory in order to develop a novel framework for models of motor control in the brain. The presented framework ... -
Predictive Simulation of Reaching Moving Targets Using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control
(Frontiers Media, 2017-01-13)This article investigates the application of optimal feedback control to trajectory planning in voluntary human arm movements. A nonlinear model predictive controller (NMPC) with a finite prediction horizon was used as the ...
