A minimal neural network for target searching and danger avoidance by smell

Research on sensory-motor coordination has attracted an increasing amount of interests recently. However, these works have been focused almost exclusively on visuomotor coordination. Research on olfactory-motor coordination, on the other hand, has been lacking. This paper contributes to the study of olfactory-motor coordination by devising a minimal neural network that allows a simulated creature to search for food and to avoid danger by smell
