I met him a few weeks back at a course in Trieste. He has some
interesting ideas about the cerebellum as a modelling/inverse
kinematics system which I don't believe in as an explanation for the
cerebellum, but makes a lot of sense for a robot architecture. One
subsystem models the expected outcome of actions, the other calculates
what do do in order to achieve an outcome. He showed some videos of
the various robots at the project, and they were quite impressive
(although robots on presentation videos are *always* impressive, of
course).
