Figure 5.10 Massone and Bizzi’s (1989) computational model used<br />

to compute hand trajectory and muscle activation over time. The<br />

network is the Jordan Sequential Network. Here, the input is<br />

represented by a highlighted location in a 15 x 15 grid. Input<br />

units, or plan units, coarsely code the sensory world, sampling a 3<br />

x 3 space, and computing an average over that space. Output units<br />

to the muscles encode a sequence of a set of muscle activations.
