Synchronization enhancement subjected to adaptive blinking coupling.

Synchronization holds a significant role, notably within chaotic systems, in various contexts where the coordinated behavior of systems plays a pivotal and indispensable role. Hence, many studies have been dedicated to investigating the underlying mechanism of synchronization of chaotic systems. Networks with time-varying coupling, particularly those with blinking coupling, have been proven essential.

Synchronization in simplicial complexes of memristive Rulkov neurons.

Simplicial complexes are mathematical constructions that describe higher-order interactions within the interconnecting elements of a network. Such higher-order interactions become increasingly significant in neuronal networks since biological backgrounds and previous outcomes back them. In light of this, the current research explores a higher-order network of the memristive Rulkov model.

The influence of synaptic pathways on the synchronization patterns of regularly structured mChialvo map network.

Synchronization of interconnecting units is one of the hottest topics many researchers are interested in. In addition, this emerging phenomenon is responsible for many biological processes, and thus, the synchronization of interacting neurons is an important field of study in neuroscience. Employing the memristive Chialvo (mChialvo) neuron map, this paper investigates the effect of electrical, inner-linking, chemical, and hybrid coupling functions on the synchronization state of a neuronal network with regular structure.

The dynamics of a duopoly Stackelberg game with marginal costs among heterogeneous players.

One of the famous economic models in game theory is the duopoly Stackelberg model, in which a leader and a follower firm manufacture a single product in the market. Their goal is to obtain the maximum profit while competing with each other. The desired dynamics for a firm in a market is the convergence to its Nash equilibrium, but the dynamics of real-world markets are not always steady and can result in unpredictable market changes that exhibit chaotic behaviors.

Higuchi fractal dimension is a unique indicator of working memory content represented in spiking activity of visual neurons in extrastriate cortex.

Working memory has been identified as a top-down modulation of the average spiking activity in different brain parts. However, such modification has not yet been reported in the middle temporal (MT) cortex. A recent study showed that the dimensionality of the spiking activity of MT neurons increases after deployment of spatial working memory.

Applying machine learning techniques to detect the deployment of spatial working memory from the spiking activity of MT neurons.

Neural signatures of working memory have been frequently identified in the spiking activity of different brain areas. However, some studies reported no memory-related change in the spiking activity of the middle temporal (MT) area in the visual cortex. However, recently it was shown that the content of working memory is reflected as an increase in the dimensionality of the average spiking activity of the MT neurons.

Synchronization of a higher-order network of Rulkov maps.

In neuronal network analysis on, for example, synchronization, it has been observed that the influence of interactions between pairwise nodes is essential. This paper further reveals that there exist higher-order interactions among multi-node simplicial complexes. Using a neuronal network of Rulkov maps, the impact of such higher-order interactions on network synchronization is simulated and analyzed.

Generalized multistability and its control in a laser.

We revisit the laser model with cavity loss modulation, from which evidence of chaos and generalized multistability was discovered in 1982. Multistability refers to the coexistence of two or more attractors in nonlinear dynamical systems. Despite its relative simplicity, the adopted model shows us how the multistability depends on the dissipation of the system.

Synchronization in Hindmarsh-Rose neurons subject to higher-order interactions.

Higher-order interactions might play a significant role in the collective dynamics of the brain. With this motivation, we here consider a simplicial complex of neurons, in particular, studying the effects of pairwise and three-body interactions on the emergence of synchronization. We assume pairwise interactions to be mediated through electrical synapses, while for second-order interactions, we separately study diffusive coupling and nonlinear chemical coupling.

Synchronization and chimera states in the network of electrochemically coupled memristive Rulkov neuron maps.

Map-based neuronal models have received much attention due to their high speed, efficiency, flexibility, and simplicity. Therefore, they are suitable for investigating different dynamical behaviors in neuronal networks, which is one of the recent hottest topics. Recently, the memristive version of the Rulkov model, known as the m-Rulkov model, has been introduced.

Phonocardiography-based mitral valve prolapse detection with using fractional fourier transform.

Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) is a common condition among people, which is often benign and does not need any serious treatment. However, this doesn't mean that MVP can't cause any problems. In malignant conditions, MVP can cause mitral failure and also heart failure.
