Title: Analysis of weakly coupled neuronal oscillators and its applications to leech swimming
Author/Creator: Chen, Zhiyong; Iwasaki, Tetsuya

Description: This paper introduces a mathematical tool for analyzing neuronal oscillator circuits based on multivariable harmonic balance (MHB). The tool is applied to a model of the central pattern generator (CPG) for leech swimming, which comprises a chain of weakly coupled segmental oscillators. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the MHB method and provide analytical explanations for some CPG properties
