When vision is excluded humans are still able to walk back to a starting point or to a previously seen target. This performance may be mediated by path integration, based on information about movement...
Allothetic and idiothetic navigation strategies rely on very different cues and computational procedures. Allothetic navigation uses the relationships between external cues (visual, auditory, and olfa...
Analysis of the neural mechanisms of place navigation requires isolation of the landmark dependent allocentric and self-motion related idiothetic orientation modes. To assess their importance, rats we...
We determined the effects of hippocampal lesions on idiothetic spatial orientation by exposing 14 patients with unilateral hippocampal atrophy and/or sclerosis (HAS) and 10 normal controls to random r...
To assess the contribution of visual and vestibular information on human navigation, five blindfolded subjects were passively displaced along two sides of a triangular path using a mobile robot. Subje...
The purpose of this research is to examine some of the implicit standards that individuals may use when they rate themselves on personality dimensions. Specifically, we compared ratings based on instr...
Abstract ? For the last decade, we have developed a bioinspired control architecture for the autonomous navigation of mobile robots. The robot is able to learn to reproduce a homing or a route followi...
Goal-directed navigation is believed to be the combined product of idiothetic and allothetic orientation. Although both navigation systems require the hippocampal formation, it is probable that differ...
