Bugs: A real-time adaptive network that responds to motion

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

Summary form only given, as follows. Bugs is an artificial neural system which detects motion in an external environment and can be trained by a teacher to react according to a desired strategy. System elements are a hard-wired motion detection network and an adaptive controller network. The motion detection net is based on a model of motion-sensitive ganglia found in rabbit eyes, while the controller learns strategies from a teacher in the form of finite-state transitions. Bugs's subnetworks are integrated by continuous-time dynamics, and elements are synchronized through simple time-scaling parameters. The author reports two experiments in which Bugs learned quite different responses to moving objects.
