Entropy production of Multivariate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes correlates with consciousness levels in the human brain

Matthieu Gilson, Enzo Tagliazucchi, Rodrigo Cofre

Consciousness is supported by complex patterns of brain activity which are indicative of irreversible non-equilibrium dynamics. While the framework of stochastic thermodynamics has…

Thermodynamic Formalism in Neuronal Dynamics and Spike Train Statistics

Rodrigo Cofré, Cesar Maldonado, Bruno Cessac

The Thermodynamic Formalism provides a rigorous mathematical framework to study quantitative and qualitative aspects of dynamical systems. At its core there is a variational princi…

Whole-brain models to explore altered states of consciousness from the bottom up

Rodrigo Cofré, Rubén Herzog, Pedro A. M. Mediano +4

The scope of human consciousness includes states departing from what most of us experience as ordinary wakefulness. These altered states of consciousness constitute a prime opportu…

Large Deviations Properties of Maximum Entropy Markov Chains from Spike Trains

Rodrigo Cofre, Cesar Maldonado, Fernando Rosas

We consider the maximum entropy Markov chain inference approach to characterize the collective statistics of neuronal spike trains, focusing on the statistical properties of the in…

Information Entropy Production of Spatio-Temporal Maximum Entropy Distributions

Rodrigo Cofre, Cesar Maldonado

Spiking activity from populations of neurons display causal interactions and memory effects. Therefore, they are expected to show some degree of irreversibility in time. Motivated…

Exact computation of the Maximum Entropy Potential of spiking neural networks models

Rodrigo Cofre, Bruno Cessac

Understanding how stimuli and synaptic connectivity in uence the statistics of spike patterns in neural networks is a central question in computational neuroscience. Maximum Entrop…

Hearing the Maximum Entropy Potential of neuronal networks

Rodrigo Cofre, Bruno Cessac

We consider a spike-generating stationary Markov process whose transition probabilities are known. We show that there is a canonical potential whose Gibbs distribution, obtained fr…

Spike train statistics and Gibbs distributions

B. Cessac, R. Cofré

This paper is based on a lecture given in the LACONEU summer school, Valparaiso, January 2012. We introduce Gibbs distribution in a general setting, including non stationary dynami…

Dynamics and spike trains statistics in conductance-based Integrate-and-Fire neural networks with chemical and electric synapses

Rodrigo Cofré, Bruno Cessac

We investigate the effect of electric synapses (gap junctions) on collective neuronal dynamics and spike statistics in a conductance-based Integrate-and-Fire neural network, driven…
