Abstract

The human sensory-motor system is strongly dependent upon the spring-like properties of muscles. In this context we investigated a parallel, distributed architecture that exploits the elastic potential energy stored by muscles and we studied methods of learning dynamics via repeated trials. It is argued that a significant contribution may come from studies concerned with analogs of human muscles and human skin, what may be called a basic wet-ware because it is based on liquid - state physics.
