Excellent- More about Adaptive Internal Models in Neuroscience
The author proposes a hypothesis that the cerebellum's primary function is to reject external reference and disturbance signals. To test this hypothesis, adaptive internal model designs are applied to several motor systems regulated by the cerebellum, including the slow eye movement systems, discrete time behaviors, and optokinetic system. This monograph provides a unifying framework to explain how the cerebellum can contribute to so many different systems in the body.

The cerebellum, a vital brain region, remains a subject of intense investigation in neuroscience. Its role in regulating motor systems, speech, emotion, and various cognitive functions is a subject of ongoing exploration. In this comprehensive monograph, the author presents a hypothesis that the primary function of the cerebellum is to reject external reference and disturbance signals. To support this assertion, the author offers a historical overview of computational theories of cerebellar function and delves into the relevant aspects of control theory within the realm of regulator theory. The monograph then proceeds with a chronological review of subjects related to the hypothesis, encompassing classical regulator theory and adaptive control theory.
To test the validity of the hypothesis, the author applies adaptive internal model designs to several motor systems regulated by the cerebellum. These systems include the slow eye movement systems, encompassing the vestibulo-ocular reflex, gaze holding, smooth pursuit, and the optokinetic system. Additionally, the author investigates discrete time behaviors regulated by the cerebellum.
Throughout the monograph, the author provides a unifying framework that explains how the cerebellum can contribute to the functioning of diverse systems within the body. This study is a significant contribution to the field of modeling the cerebellum using control theory techniques, with implications for neuroscientists and control theorists seeking to unravel the mysteries of the human brain.
