This study replicates and extends laboratory findings on rhythmic timing in a naturalistic museum setting, showing age-related changes in timing accuracy and drift toward preferred tempo.

This study uses intersection point analysis of ground reaction forces to show that humans minimize joint effort by adjusting ankle and hip torques during balance on a narrow beam.

This paper infers control objectives from behavior in humans and monkeys using a generative model and behavioral signatures, validated through instructed tasks.

This study shows that wearing rigid foot soles improves balance during beam walking, but does not transfer to improved performance with bare feet, suggesting a mechanical rather than neural effect.
