Modeling Rhythmic Interlimb Coordination: Beyond the Haken–Kelso–Bunz Model
@article{Beek2002ModelingRI, title={Modeling Rhythmic Interlimb Coordination: Beyond the Haken–Kelso–Bunz Model}, author={Peter Jan Beek and C. E. Peper and Andreas Daffertshofer}, journal={Brain and Cognition}, year={2002}, volume={48}, pages={149-165} }
Although the Haken-Kelso-Bunz (HKB) model was originally formulated to account for phase transitions in bimanual movements, it evolved, through experimentation and conceptual elaboration, into a fundamental formal construct for the experimental study of rhythmically coordinated movements in general. The model consists of two levels of formalization: a potential defining the stability properties of relative phase and a system of coupled limit cycle oscillators defining the individual limb…

Dynamical Models of Rhythmic Interlimb Coordination
- Physics
- 2004
The empirically observed stability characteristics of rhythmic interlimb coordination have been modeled in terms of gradient dynamics of the (order) parameter that defines the coordination modes, but the high level of abstraction of these models precludes gaining insight into how the stability features result from underlying processes and system properties.

The description of unimanual coordination leads to a mechanism for phase transitions that is distinct from that seen in the HKB model, and the existence of two types of transitions in the extended theory, phase-mediated and amplitude-mediated transitions.

It is shown that a physiologically motivated model of a CPG can not only generate simple rhythmic movements with only a small set of parameters, but can also produce discrete movements if the CPG is fed with an exponentially decaying phasic input.

A dynamical model is derived to account for the patterns of brain activity observed during stable performance of bimanual multifrequency patterns, as well as during behavioral instabilities in the form of phase transitions between such patterns.

The early 1980s saw the development of a new perspective on motor control inspired by theories of self-organization and dynamical systems theory, which resulted in a detailed documentation of the relation between oscillator properties and task requirements.

The authors show analytically and numerically that the sigmoidal coupling leads to convergence phenomena in phase space, whereas the Haken-Kelso-Bunz coupling displays convergent as well as divergent behaviors.
The stability of rhythmic movement coordination depends on relative speed: the Bingham model supported
- PsychologyExperimental Brain Research

The central finding was that the stability of rhythmic movement coordination does depend on relative speed and, thus, all three of the hypotheses contained in the original Bingham model are supported.

The results support the time-delay version of the model, in which differential (loss of) stability of coordination modes results from differential dependence on movement amplitude, but overall coupling strength is related reciprocally to movement frequency squared.

It is suggested that frequency-induced transitions in coordinated rhythmic movements may not be mediated by a drop in amplitude and that alternative directions in modeling may have to be considered.
