文摘According to the theory of Matsuoka neural oscillators and with the con- sideration of the fact that the human upper arm mainly consists of six muscles, a new kind of central pattern generator （CPG） neural network consisting of six neurons is pro- posed to regulate the contraction of the upper arm muscles. To verify effectiveness of the proposed CPG network, an arm motion control model based on the CPG is established. By adjusting the CPG parameters, we obtain the neural responses of the network, the angles of joint and hand of the model with MATLAB. The simulation results agree with the results of crank rotation experiments designed by Ohta et al., showing that the arm motion control model based on a CPG network is reasonable and effective.
