Abstract

This survey is meant to serve computer scientists, mathematicians and others who need to get quickly acquainted with the most relevant results in the biology and psychology of the tactile senses but have little or no prior exposure to the field. The survey is written from the point of view of a computer scientists studying artificial neural networks (ANNs). Questions of relevancy - what to include and what to exclude in the survey - are always very subjective. This survey tries to include biological and psychological knowledge and results that could provide ANN research with new ideas and insights. Also, the survey includes matters that could make the opposite to take place: ANN research providing biology and psychology with new ideas or insights.
