tvb-robot - controlling a bot with the virtual brain platform

tvb-robot

cognitive robotics with the virtual brain platform

I've signed up for a robotics hackathon and thought it would be fun and possibly even useful to try and control a bot with a tvb-simulated brain.

TVB isn't designed to model cognitive processes or neural computations per se. But it should nevertheless be capable of some interesting things in that direction.

To do this we need to figure out the following:

  1. how to do real-time simulation outputs, and ideally also real-time stimulus inputs and parameter adjustment
  2. how best to associate model variables with e.g. motor actions, or more abstract motor programs
  3. whether and how to use supervised learning to 'teach' the bot brain things
