Abstract

A computational theory model is constructed to generate a body map and a body schema. It is assumed that the fetus has a body map and a body schema to control and understand its body and generates them based on tactile information obtained by random motion in the womb called general movement. As a first step, in this research, a computational theory model is proposed to generate the body Map based on tactile information and to estimate nodes of the body schema by machine learning methods.
