MARCS Monday Meeting (MMM): Director's Report and Dr Bronson Harry

MARCS Monday Meeting (MMM) (Room 3.G.55 - Building 3)

12pm start

Institute Director's Report and presentation by Dr Bronson Harry

Topic: Tutorial and Simulations with ADAM: an adaptation and anticipation model of sensorimotor synchronization
Speaker:  Dr Bronson Harry

Abstract:  Interpersonal coordination of movements often involves precise synchronization of action timing, particularly in expert domains such as ensemble music performance. According to the adaptation and anticipation model (ADAM) of sensorimotor synchronization, precise yet flexible interpersonal coordination is supported by reactive error correction mechanisms and anticipatory mechanisms that exploit systematic patterns in stimulus timing to plan future actions.

Here, we provide a tutorial introduction to the computational architecture of ADAM and present a series of single- and dual-virtual agent simulations that examine the model parameters that produce ideal synchronization performance in different tempo conditions.

We thank you for your continued attendance at the MMM's.  Let's keep the momentum going.

MARCS staff and students are reminded that all meetings and workshops have an important role in building and maintaining the sense of community which is central to the success of MARCS as a cooperative and energetic research institute.  Your attendance is both welcomed and expected.
