The Hippocampal Place Cells and Fingerprints of Places: Spatial Representation Animals, Animats and Robots.

摘要: In this paper we address the problem of autonomous navigation seen from neuroscience and robotics point view. A new topological mapping system is presented. It combines local features (i.e. visual distance cues) in a unique structure – “fingerprint place” that results consistent, compact distinctive representation. Overall, suggest process fingerprint matching can efficiently determine orientation, location within environment, construction map, may play role emerging spatial representations hippocampus
