  • Abstract
    A path planning model using hippocampal place cells is presented. It is inspired by sequential place cell activity observed in rodents, which is believed to represent goal-directed planning behavior. The utility of this model, implemented with spiking neuromorphic VLSI neurons, is demonstrated in a motion planning task on a four-segment robotic arm.
