A Neuro-Musculo-Skeletal Model for Insects With Data-driven Optimization.
Scientific Reports 2018 Februrary 2
Simulating the locomotion of insects is beneficial to many areas such as experimental biology, computer animation and robotics. This work proposes a neuro-musculo-skeletal model, which integrates the biological inspirations from real insects and reproduces the gait pattern on virtual insects. The neural system is a network of spiking neurons, whose spiking patterns are controlled by the input currents. The spiking pattern provides a uniform representation of sensory information, high-level commands and control strategy. The muscle models are designed following the characteristic Hill-type muscle with customized force-length and force-velocity relationships. The model parameters, including both the neural and muscular components, are optimized via an approach of evolutionary optimization, with the data captured from real insects. The results show that the simulated gait pattern, including joint trajectories, matches the experimental data collected from real ants walking in the free mode. The simulated character is capable of moving at different directions and traversing uneven terrains.
