Embodiment Construction

[0032] figure 1 A block diagram of a system for conditioning an organism 7 is shown. The system can be used to condition an organism 7 such that the organism gives a conditioned response to a conditioned stimulus. Such regulated responses may include specific states of the organism, such as emotional states. After conditioning, the conditioned response can be evoked in the organism 7 by providing the conditioned stimulus. To this end, during the training phase, the conditioning stimulus is provided at times when the organism is in a particular state of the conditioning response. The system may include one or more storage media, such as RAM, ROM or flash memory, or on magnetic or optical disks. The system may further include one or more processors for executing the programs stored in the storage medium. The system can also be implemented by dedicated electronic circuits.

Abstract

A system for conditioning an organism by associating a conditioned response with a conditioned stimulus, the system comprising the following. Identifying means for identifying a signal pattern associated with a conditioned response (201). Measuring means for measuring a signal of the organism for obtaining a measured signal (202). A comparer for comparing the measured signal with the signal pattern (203). A stimulus renderer for rendering a conditioned stimulus (204) when the measured signal matches the signal pattern, for conditioning the organism such that it associates the conditioned stimulus with the conditioned response, and for further rendering the conditioned stimulus for evoking the conditioned response, at a time which depends on the measured signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to systems, methods and computer programs for conditioning organisms. Background technique [0002] Classical conditioning, a form of associative learning in organisms, was first demonstrated by Ivan Pavlov. Classical conditioning involves the repeated pairing of an event (unconditioned stimulus US) that evokes a specific behavioral response in an organism (unconditioned response UR) with another previously neutral event (conditioned stimulus) that does not normally evoke that specific behavioral response. If a conditioned stimulus (CS) and an unconditioned stimulus (US) are repeatedly presented to an organism as a pair, eventually the organism will associate the two stimuli with each other. As a result, the modulating stimulus also elicits that specific behavioral response when presented to the organism. This specific behavioral response becomes the conditioned response (CR) associated with the conditioned stimulus. ...
