Optimization of artificial
central pattern generators with evolutionary algorithms.
The
central pattern generator (CPG) is the part which generates the rhythmic oscillations required for the locomotion in almost all vertebrates.

Evidence that the
central pattern generator for swimming in Tritonia arose from a non-rhythmic neuromodulatory arousal system: implications for the evolution of specialized behavior.
Much motor behavior, from a human serving a tennis ball to a fish swimming, is regulated by these
central pattern generators, which generate a motor pattern or a repetitive action.
Target-specific regulation of synaptic efficacy in the feeding
central pattern generator of Aplysia: potential substrates for behavioral plasticity?
The results of this study suggest that the swimming behavior of Melibe leonina is produced by a
central pattern generator (GPO) capable of expressing a swimming motor program in the absence of sensory feedback.
(1998) and Schmitz (2001) state that in the stick insect there is little evidence for a
central pattern generator. Instead sensory information derived from leg position and ground contact, together with six different coupling mechanisms, allows selection between swing networks and stance networks.
Many forms of locomotion in both invertebrates and vertebrates result from the activity of
central pattern generator (CPG) networks of neurons (see review by Marder and Calabrese [1996]).
