Low case numbers enable long-term stable pandemic control without lockdowns
Sebastian Contreras, Jonas Dehning, Sebastian B. Mohr +3
The traditional long-term solutions for epidemic control involve eradication or population immunity. Here, we analytically derive the existence of a third viable solution: a stable…
The foreshadow of a second wave: An analysis of current COVID-19 fatalities in Germany
Matthias Linden, Jonas Dehning, Sebastian B. Mohr +5
A second wave of SARS-CoV-2 is unfolding in dozens of countries. However, this second wave manifests itself strongly in new reported cases, but less in death counts compared to the…
Local dendritic balance enables learning of efficient representations in networks of spiking neurons
Fabian Alexander Mikulasch, Lucas Rudelt, Viola Priesemann
How can neural networks learn to efficiently represent complex and high-dimensional inputs via local plasticity mechanisms? Classical models of representation learning assume that…
Self-organization toward criticality by synaptic plasticity
Roxana Zeraati, Viola Priesemann, Anna Levina
Self-organized criticality has been proposed to be a universal mechanism for the emergence of scale-free dynamics in many complex systems, and possibly in the brain. While such sca…
The challenges of containing SARS-CoV-2 via test-trace-and-isolate
Sebastian Contreras, Jonas Dehning, Matthias Loidolt +7
Without a cure, vaccine, or proven long-term immunity against SARS-CoV-2, test-trace-and-isolate (TTI) strategies present a promising tool to contain its spread. For any TTI strate…
Characterizing spreading dynamics of subsampled systems with non-stationary external input
Jorge de Heuvel, Jens Wilting, Moritz Becker +2
Many systems with propagation dynamics, such as spike propagation in neural networks and spreading of infectious diseases, can be approximated by autoregressive models. The estimat…
Assessing criticality in pre-seizure single-neuron activity of human epileptic cortex
Annika Hagemann, Jens Wilting, Bita Samimizad +2
Epileptic seizures are characterized by abnormal and excessive neural activity, where cortical network dynamics seem to become unstable. However, most of the time, during seizure-f…
