Brain Regions Involved in USCBP Reaching Models A High Level Overview
Brain Regions • Cheol’s Models • Motor cortex (M1) • Spinal cord • Basal Ganglia (BG) • Dorsal Premotor (PMd, providing input) • Jimmy’s Models • Parieto-occipital area (V6a) • Lateral intraparietal area (LIP) • BG • PMd (specifically F2)
Issues In Model Integration • Unified View of M1 • Interactions between PMd and M1 • Role of the BG • Involvement of the Cerebellum
M1 Modeling • Cheol • Top-down model – directional tuning with supervised and unsupervised learning • Bottom-up model – input and output maps with controlling muscle synergies • Jimmy • Robotic control model – trajectory generator, inverse kinematics, PD controllers (probably not all in M1)
Cheol’s Top-Down M1 Model • Directional tuning of M1 neurons tuned using supervised learning and unsupervised learning • Arm choice learned with reinforcement learning • Jimmy: Equivalent to noisy WTA based on executability • Cheol: connecting to unified view of motor learning
Trajectory Generator Possible motor procedures in the motor cortex Joint static Level Planning ACTOR CRITIC • Inverse dynamics and muscle models learned using temporal difference learning in an actor-critic architecture • The actor may correspond to the motor cortex. Inverse Dynamics Evaluator Of Mvmt Joint “force” Level Planning TD error Inverse Muscle Model Muscle Level Planning Motoneurons (spinal cord) Arm
Cheol’s Bottom-up M1 model(based on feedback signal) Target location (premotor) IDM: mapping the error direction to muscle synergy (directly related to directional tuning) ISM + Motor Cortex Model (map) Feedback signal (premotor) + - (with optimal feedback controller) Muscle Synergy Forward model • Pesaran et al. (2006) indicated that PMd neurons encoded • both target location and feedback signal.
ILGA Motor Controller • Input - reach target in wrist-centered coordinates • Dynamic Motor Primitives – generate reach trajectory • Inverse Kinematics – pseudo-inverse of Jacobian matrix • PD controllers – one for each DOF
Interactions Between PMd and M1 • Our views of the role of PMd are very similar • Jimmy • PMd (F2) provides M1 with target location in wrist-centered coordinates • Cheol • Supra-motor-cortex coding in PMd may be feedback error (target location in hand-centered reference frame) and/or target location in the fixation point coordinates.
ILGA: F2 Integrates Bottom-Up and Top-Down Reach Target Signals • Rostral F2 performs target selection based on parietal and prefrontal input • Caudal F2 encodes selected target and initiates reach • F6 detects go signal and disinhibits via BG Tanne et al (1995)
Reconciliation with FARS view of PMd • FARS implicated F2 in conditional action selection and F4 in reach target selection • However many studies show F2 to contain directionally tuned neurons that discharge prior to reaching • F4 contains bimodal (visual / somatosensory) neurons that respond when objects approach their somatosensory receptive field on the arm or hand
F2 vs. F4: Experimental Data • Neurons in F2 are broadly tuned to multidimensional direction in a reaching task (Caminiti, 1991; Fu et al., 1993) • Pesaran, Nelson & Andersen (2006) – PMd neurons encode relative positions of eye, hand, and target • PMd contains combined signals. • MIP contains more (target-eye) coding – fixation point coordinate • F4 bimodal visual-tactile neurons have very large visual and somatosensory receptive fields and visual field is anchored to somatosensory field • But most don’t fire for stimuli farther than 25cm away (Graziano et al., 1997) - Not suitable for encoding reach target! • May be involved in feedback control of reach-grasp coordination – tactile RFs may contribute to transition from visual- to haptic-based control
Role of the BG • Cheol • Adaptive critic in actor-critic architecture • Jimmy • Adaptive critic gated by internal state • Action disinhibition • Role in previous USCBP models • DA / DAJ – action disinhibition • ILGM – reward signal • Extended TD – adaptive critic • Bischoff BG model – next-state prediction
BG Disinhibition of Action • ILGA’s use of the basal ganglia to disinhibit actions is largely consistent with its role in the Dominey-Arbib and Dominey-Arbib-Joseph Models • The cortical target of context-dependent biases are different
BG as an Adaptive Critic • The basal ganglia’s role as an adaptive critic is not very controversial • However, each of our models uses it to learn different parameters • Cheol’s top-down model – to modify arm selection • Cheol’s bottom-up model – to learn inverse models • ILGA – kinematic parameters and contextual bias • ACQ – executability and internal state-dependent desirability • Does this imply several actor/critic combinations (1:1, N:1, 1:N, N:N)? • Cheol’s top-down model – actor / critic • Cheol’s bottom-up model – actor / critic • ILGA – actor / critic • ACQ – actor / multiple critics
M1 & BG roles in Cheol’s unified view The reinforcement learning framework will replace “optimization of a task-related cost function” with “maximization of a task-related reward function” which also accounts for actuators’ limitation The critic encodes the current task-related reward function. The reward or an action value is defined only when we have an “objective”. So, the critic will try to encode which action might be the best action in terms of reward (action value) to achieve a certain objective. It will monitor that the current movement’s performance. If the performance is changed, the critic will give the information of the next best action. And it will facilitate changing the actor accordingly. If there are multiple tasks, there should be multiple critics. What is now the critic’s role? It will encode the objective function and provide the “teaching” signal to the actor through TD error: if TD error is zero, we don’t need to change the actor, and so on. Visual signal (world representation) Action-oriented perception ? Target related signal Critic X (vision-task-related) Send limitation of the actuators via TD error This arrow is the actor. representation of the actuator Critic (motor-task-related) TD error. It represent the current maximum capability of the motor actuators. So, if the motor actuators are based on muscles, it will be the muscle synergies and the limitation of muscle-based actuator. If there is a stroke on it, the maximum capability is changed and the limitation of the world increases. If there is a rehabilitation, the maximum capability is changed again and the limitation decreases. Send limitation of the actuators via unsupervised learning Any motor actuators
M1 & BG roles in Cheol’s unified view PLoS model Jool’s variability data Reaching module Coordination manager Grasping module Maybe separated obtaining of those two modules (early learning) Critic Representation of the actuators actor Critic In this coordination problem, we may have an objective of the coordination. As an example, we can weigh more on faster movement, or on the accurate movement, or accurate grasping. So based on the different objective, we may have variability in coordination. However, this coordination is not free from the actuators. First, if there is a signal dependent noise, we cannot have too fast movement. (This limitation is already in the Hoff-Arbib model). Second, too large initial aperture can assure the more accurate grasping but will give a limitation of the reaching module (slower reaching). Because of the stroke on a motor cortex, we have a change in limitation (performance change) of the corresponding actuator. The action choice module will encode which arm is better in a certain direction. So when the performance of the affected arm decreased, it will say that the best action is using the unaffected arm. (i.e. behavioral compensation). Can we connect these ideas with the words executability and desirability? In general, the objective function contains both concepts I think. Hierarchical Optimal Feedback Controller Todorov et al (2005) found a similar idea on hierarchical optimization of the plants. But the reinforcement learning framework will provide the more general framework of the motor system learning and may be more applicable Motor cortex model Kambara et al. (2008) showed the possibility and I also would implement it with map reorganization!
