A model of the cerebellum generates gait adaptations in a reflex-based neuromusculoskeletal model during split-belt walking
We propose a computational model of the cerebellum which, when integrated into a spinal reflex model, autonomously drives feedforward gait adaptations during split-belt walking. This advances the current state of predictive simulations and may eventually help to better understand specific adaptation processes. The modular framework can be extended to test different hypotheses about motor control and adaptation during continuous perturbation tasks.
