Discussion on Rhythmic Gait Movement Affected by Cerebral Cortex Signal

摘要：

The gait movement on humans is a typical mode of the rhythmic movement. Proved by experiment, there is a neural circuit existing in the body of creatures, which controls various rhythmic movements. It is called as central pattern generator. The researchers study the gait movement in the basis of establishing the CPG model now. For the rhythmic movement, the neurobiologists believe that it is a lower neural activity, which is a spontaneous behavior without the control of the cerebral cortex signal. However, the gait movement on human has some different modes. Every mode of the gait movement is not directly controlled by cerebral cortex signal, but the instruction signal generated by cerebral cortex can regulate the interchange between the gait modes. In this paper, in the basis of thinking about the instruction regulation of cerebral cortex to gait movement on humans, the CPG model is revised. The revised model can reflect that the cerebral cortex signal can regulate the mode and frequency of gait, and can realize the interchange between gaits.
