A developmental algorithm for ocular–motor coordination

This paper presents a model of ocular–motor development, inspired by ideas and data from developmental psychology. The learning problem concerns the growth of the transform between image space and motor space necessary for the control of visual saccades. An implementation is used to produce experimental results and these are presented and discussed. The algorithm is simple, extremely fast, self-calibrating, adaptive to change, and exhibits emergent stages of behaviour as learning progresses.
