Changes in postural syntax characterize sensory modulation and natural variation of <i>C. elegans</i> locomotion

2015-04-08

Abstract excerpt

Locomotion is driven by shape changes coordinated by the nervous system through time; thus, enumerating an animal’s complete repertoire of shape transitions would provide a basis for a comprehensive understanding of locomotor behaviour. Here we introduce a discrete representation of behaviour in the nematode C. elegans . At each point in time, the worm’s posture is approximated by its closest matching template fr...
