A Time Domain Acoustic Model for the Production of Rodent Ultrasonic Vocalizations
Matthew Dornfeld, Marcelo Magnasco, Oreste Piro
Mammalian ultrasonic vocalization (USV) has been a subject of interest for decades. This interest has mainly been driven by the intelligence of dolphins and other odontocetes. Howe…
A Nonhyperbolic Toy Model of Cochlear Dynamics
Keith Hayton, Dimitrios Moirogiannis, Marcelo Magnasco
Cochlea displays complex and highly nonlinear behavior in response to wide-ranging auditory stimuli. While there have been many recent advancements in the modeling of cochlear dyna…
Damage and fluctuations induce loops in optimal transport networks
Eleni Katifori, Gergely J. Szöllősi, Marcelo O. Magnasco
Leaf venation is a pervasive example of a complex biological network, endowing leaves with a transport system and mechanical resilience. Transport networks optimized for efficiency…
Solving the riddle of the bright mismatches: hybridization in oligonucleotide arrays
Felix Naef, Marcelo O. Magnasco
HDONA technology is predicated on two ideas. First, the differential between high-affinity (perfect match, PM) and lower-affinity (mismatch, MM) probes is used to minimize cross-hy…
A study of accuracy and precision in oligonucleotide arrays: extracting more signal at large concentrations
Felix Naef, Nicholas D. Socci, Marcelo Magnasco
Despite the success and popularity of oligonucleotide arrays as a high-throughput technique for measuring mRNA expression levels, quantitative calibration studies have until now be…
The Cochlear Tuning Curve
Marcelo O. Magnasco
The tuning curve of the cochlea measures how large an input is required to elicit a given output level as a function of the frequency. It is a fundamental object of auditory theory…
