“…CPGs have been mostly modeled by coupled nonlinear oscillators utilizing their synchronization and stability properties, for example, spiking neurons [3][4][5], Van der Pol oscillators [6][7][8], Hopf oscillators [9][10][11], and Kuramoto oscillators [12][13][14]. These models have been applied to gait generation for various types of bio-inspired robots and clinical prosthetic devices [15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. In such models, since one synchronization pattern corresponds to one gait pattern of legged animals, it is required to synchronize from any transient state to a desired pattern (Fig.…”
