Do We Need Internal Models for Movement Control

摘要: The issue of how humans and animals perform accurate movements has been addressed in various ways. Although this book is promoting concepts stemming from dynamical systems theory, other approaches have contributed to the understanding movement as well. Among others, equilibrium point theory computational deserve be listed for their contribution field research called motor control. In chapter, using single-joint rhythmic an example, I will start first emphasizing respective contributions drawbacks each approach. Then address parameter selection. Indeed, despite diverging opinions about possible nature control parameter(s), all three must deal with problem adequate parameter(s) achieve a desired are selected. At end expose concept internal model may offer solution problem.
