Self-organizing body-schema for motor planning

Description

This article presents a distributed computational architecture for the motor planning functions of the posterior parietal cortex, which is organized as a computational map and combines a paradigm of self-organization (for building robust and coherent maps of the different motor spaces) with an attractor dynamics (for run-time integration of task constraints). The model, named SO-BoS (self-organizing body-schema), is illustrated with simple simulation results.
