本文提出用无穷范数优化控制策略,通过稀疏信号实现人类快速抓取运动,具有生物解释性和简化信息内容。

摘要:

最优控制模型在描述人类运动方面取得成功,但其神经实现尚不明确。本文提出通过改变成本评估的范数来改进现有方法,使用无穷范数使控制信号稀疏化,用狄拉克δ函数表示。通过基本物理系统演示,点质量可在两点间移动,产生类似人类快速抓取运动。尽管控制信号稀疏,但运动连续平滑。稀疏信号比非稀疏信号更简单,但效果相当。此类信号类似于神经脉冲序列,具有生物解释性。

英文摘要:

Optimal control models have been successful in describing many aspects of human movement. The interpretation of such models regarding neuronal implementation of the human motor system is not clear. An important aspects of optimal control policies is the notion of cost. Optimal control seeks to minimize a notion of cost, while meeting certain goals. We offer a method to transform current methods in the literature from their traditional form by changing the norm by which cost is assessed. We show how sparsity can be introduced into current optimal approaches that use continuous control signals. We assess cost using the infinity norm. This results in optimal signals which can be represented by a small amount of Dirac delta functions. Sparsity has played an important role in theoretical neuroscience for information processing (such as vision). In this work, to obtain sparse control signals, the infinity norm is used as a penalty on the control signal, which is then encoded with Dirac delta functions. We show, for a basic physical system, a point mass can be moved between two points in a way that resembles human fast reaching movements. Despite the sparse nature of the control signal, the movements that result are continuous and smooth. These control signals are simpler than their non-sparse counterparts, yet yield comparable results when applied towards modeling reaching movements. In addition, such sparse control signals resemble a sequence of spikes, giving this approach a biological interpretation. Actual neuronal implementations are more complex. However, this work shows, in principle, that sparsely encoded control signals are a plausible implementation for the control of reaching movements. Leading techniques for modeling human movements can easily be adjusted in order to introduce sparsity, with a biological interpretation and the simplified information content of the control signal.
