  David Marr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
His doctoral dissertation was submitted in 1969 and described his model of the function of the cerebellum based mainly on anatomical and physiological data garnered from a book by J.C. Eccles.
Marr is acknowledged as a founder of the discipline of Computational Neuroscience.
Marr described vision as proceeding from a two-dimensional visual array (on the retina) to a three-dimensional description of the world as output.

 Structure, Function, and Dynamics:
The models in Organization use neural networks in the sense of computational neuroscience in which the structure of the network and the function of the neuron is constrained, at some appropriate level of detail, by the data of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology.
9.4 modeled the cerebellar role in saccade adaptation, refining the cortico-thalamic model by adjusting the metrics of saccades, a feat of learning that is impossible in animals or humans lacking certain portions of the cerebellum.
The full model also includes the role of SII in creating and monitoring haptic expectations, the role of dorsal premotor cortex (F2) in the association of arbitrary stimuli with motor program preparation, and the role of area 46 as a working memory in tasks requiring information to be held during a delay period.

 MODELS OF THE CEREBELLUM AND MOTOR LEARNING
Marr, Albus, and Braitenberg alike, assumed that individual Purkinje cells control elemental movements that are evoked when the Purkinje cell fires or pauses.
In early versions of the model, the PFs were assumed to convey unprocessed mossy fiber input, whereas in our recent simulations we have used a layer of granule units combined with Golgi cell feedback to create a sparsely coded representation of the mossy fiber input, along the lines assumed in the Marr and Albus theories.
The model by Moore and colleagues is most readily accomodated by current single unit data which demonstrates that sources of mossy fiber input to the cerebellum have a distribution of latencies.

 Cerebellum - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
This was first proposed by Marr and Albus in the early 1970s. The third, "Tensor Network Theory" provides a mathematical model of transformation of sensory (covariant) space-time coordinates into motor (contravariant) coordinates by cerebellar neuronal networks.
Studies of motor learning in the vestibulo-ocular reflex and eyeblink conditioning demonstrate that the timing and amplitude of learned movements are encoded by the cerebellum. Many synaptic plasticity mechanisms have been found throughout the cerebellum.
As mentioned in the preceding section, there have been many attempts to model the cerebellar function. The insights provided by the models have also led to extrapolations in the domains of artificial intelligence methodologies, especially neural networks.

 237-240
The Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller (CMAC) [1, 2] is a neural network that models the structure and function of the part of the brain known as the cerebellum.
This model was, in turn, inspired by a series of experiments performed by Eccles [8] and others during the 1960s that showed a striking resemblance between the structure and function of the cerebellum and the Perceptron neural net developed by Rosenblatt [9] in the 1950s.
The Albus model, combined with a similar model published in 1969 by David Marr [10], have become known as the Marr-Albus model of the cerebel-lum.

Marr (1968), drawing extensively from the work of Eccles and colleagues, developed a model of cerebellar function which detailed the manner in which learning might occur in this system.
Albus proposed that parallel fiber synapses with Purkinje cells, basket cells, and stellate cells are all modifiable.
Albus model is explicitly formulated in terms of classical conditioning.

We modeled four microzones: a flexor and an extensor microzone for the shoulder and the elbow joints.
The large NO concentration in the most rightward microzone (elbow flexor microzone) was caused by a large error in the elbow flexor during this movement; conversely, low concentration in the most leftward microzone (shoulder extensor microzone) was caused by a small error in the shoulder extensor.
We modeled four microzones (35): a flexor and an extensor microzone for the shoulder and elbow joints.

 A New Functional Role for Cerebellar Long Term Depression
A few years later, Albus (1971) refined this theory by suggesting that the cerebellum functions as a modified perceptron (Minsky and Papert, 1969) pattern-classification device, with the complex spike as the unconditioned stimulus and mossy fiber (MF) input as the conditioned stimulus.
Albus also proposed that the CF stimulus is an error signal and that the PF synapse is weakened instead of facilitated.
The computer model shows that the activation of dendritic Ca channels required for these amplification mechanisms (De Schutter and Bower, 1994c) is similar to that observed experimentally (Eilers et al., 1995) and does not result in the appearance of burst activity in the firing pattern.

This network was developed by Albus (1971) as a model of the cerebellum and was later applied to the control of robot manipulators (Albus, 1975; 1979; 1981).
For example, it has been shown (Minsky and Papert, 1969) that this particular perceptron model cannot determine whether or not all the parts of its input image (geometric figure) are connected to one another, nor it can determine whether or not the number of 'on' pixels in a finite input image is odd.
This model, Gallant-Smith-Hassoun (GSH) model, is also similar to a version of an early model studied by Gamba (1961), and referred to as the Gamba Perceptron (Minsky and Papert, 1969).

 Autonomous Agents as Embodied AI
Modeling the environment is both difficult and computationally expensive.
Though the Internal Models principle warns against over doing it, some internal modeling of the environment will be needed to allow for expectations (important to perception, for instance), planning, problem solving, etc. This principle also points to the distinction between reactive and deliberative action selection (see for example Sloman 1995).
Deliberative actions are selected with the help of internal models, planners, schedulers, etc. These models use internal representations in the strict sense of the word, that is, they are consulted for their content.

Lance M. Optican is chief of the section on Neural Modeling in the Laboratory of Sensorimotor Research at the National Eye Institute, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA.
Although much research and modeling has focussed on the role of climbing fibers in movement control, it has been assumed that complex spikes do not encode movement features because of their very low firing rate.
This can be particularly useful when the firing pattern of the neuron (e.g., a complex spike in a PC) is known, but when the cause of this response is not known (i.e., what generates climbing fiber activation?).

The new model described here remains rather high-level, but does incorporate the basic circuitry of the cerebellum (Ito, 1984): Inputs arrive via mossy fibers to the granule cells whose axons bifurcate to form parallel fibers in the cerebellar cortex.
Learning occurs at the parallel fiber-Purkinje dendrites in the form of long term depression (LTD) of parallel fiber-Purkinje dendrites after activation of parallel and climbing fibers with appropriate timing relationships (Albus, 1971; Marr, 1969).
