----------Broader impacts ___

  1. Modeling/simulation people --Curse of dimensionality (it's been lifted) --you should not be afraid of musculoskeletal modeling at scale
  2. Cost function people --you need to test your algorithms in a more visible space --consider the cost gradients across the fitness landscape (cost functions distort the landscape) --refer to optimization algorithms in terms of robustness
  3. Synergy people --adding synergies will only constrain this space further --you can model synergies as basis functions, but how does the CNS stay in the space --in the future, 'synergists' should focus on exploitation of families of solutions --synergies are exploiting these landscapes (see Racz & FVC)
  4. Learning people --Now they have a way to view how these landscapes change. --Motor learning is (at its essence) focused on finding and exploring these subspaces- now we've opened the ability for them to track and visualize them.
  5. Stochastic Motor Control --Histograms offer a joint distribution of solutions that serve as the hard priors for bayesian motor control.
  6. Data mining/ML people --cost functions are now multidimensional --parallel coordinates offer a quick way to make decisions --now that we can enter these spaces, how do we visualize them? that remains a challenge. fruitful avenue for research.
