Adaptive body representation requires the continuous integration of multisensory inputs
within a flexible 'body model'in the brain. The present review evaluates the idea that this …

Understanding of the brain and the principles governing neural processing requires theories
that are parsimonious, can account for a diverse set of phenomena, and can make testable …

The field of motor control has long focused on the achievement of external goals through
action (eg, reaching and grasping objects). However, recent studies in conditions of …

Neurons in primary visual cortex (V1) may not only signal current visual input but also
relevant contextual information such as reward expectancy and the subject's spatial position …

Amputees can be fitted with a robotic prosthesis to restore the function and appearance of
the missing limb. Integration of the prosthesis into the body schema based on visual …

Embodiment of an avatar is important in many seated VR applications. We investigate a
Bayesian Causal Inference model of body ownership. According to the model, when …

Using the seminal rubber hand illusion and related paradigms, the last two decades
unveiled the multisensory mechanisms underlying the sense of limb embodiment, that is, the …

Human body experience is remarkably flexible, which enables us to integrate passive tools
as well as intelligent robotic devices into our body representation. Accordingly, it can serve …

The Rubber Foot Illusion (RFI) is an illusion in which one is made to feel that a model foot is
their own through synchronous visuo-tactile stimulation. Previous research suggests that the …

Besides considering human-robot body experience as a metric in robot and control design,
understanding it in a broader sense and context is of psychological and technical interest …
