  • Perception-Action Cycle

    Models, Architectures, and Hardware

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The perception-action cycle is the circular flow of information that takes place between the organism and its environment in the course of a sensory-guided sequence of behaviour towards a goal. Each action causes changes in the environment that are analyzed bottom-up through the perceptual hierarchy and lead to the processing of further action, top-down through the executive hierarchy, toward ...

  • Brain-Computer Interfaces

    Current Trends and Applications

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    The success of a BCI system depends as much on the system itself as on the user’s ability to produce distinctive EEG activity. BCI systems can be divided into two groups according to the placement of the electrodes used to detect and measure neurons firing in the brain. These groups are: invasive systems, electrodes are inserted directly into the cortex are used for single cell or multi unit ... Read more
