Cerebellar adaptive mechanisms explain the optimal control of saccadic eye movements
BIOINSPIRATION & BIOMIMETICS(2021)
摘要
Cerebellar synaptic plasticity is vital for adaptability and fine tuning of goal-directed movements. The perceived sensory errors between desired and actual movement outcomes are commonly considered to induce plasticity in the cerebellar synapses, with an objective to improve desirability of the executed movements. In rapid goal-directed eye movements called saccades, the only available sensory feedback is the direction of reaching error information received only at end of the movement. Moreover, this sensory error dependent plasticity can only improve the accuracy of the movements, while ignoring other essential characteristics such as reaching in minimum-time. In this work we propose a rate based, cerebellum inspired adaptive filter model to address refinement of both accuracy and movement-time of saccades. We use optimal control approach in conjunction with information constraints posed by the cerebellum to derive bio-plausible supervised plasticity rules. We implement and validate this bio-inspired scheme on a humanoid robot. We found out that, separate plasticity mechanisms in the model cerebellum separately control accuracy and movement-time. These plasticity mechanisms ensure that optimal saccades are produced by just receiving the direction of end reaching error as an evaluative signal. Furthermore, the model emulates encoding in the cerebellum of movement kinematics as observed in biological experiments.
