Causal Discovery in Structural VAR Models Under Equal Noise Variance
SeyedSina Seyedi HasanAbadi, Fahimeh Arab, Erfan Nozari +1
Causal discovery from multivariate time series is challenging when causal effects may occur both across time and within the same sampling interval. This issue is especially importa…
Passivity-Based Control of Electrographic Seizures in a Neural Mass Model of Epilepsy
Gagan Acharya, Erfan Nozari
Recent advances in neurotechnologies and decades of scientific and clinical research have made closed-loop electrical neuromodulation one of the most promising avenues for the trea…
On the Emergence of Linear Behavior in Large-Scale Dynamical Systems via Spatial Averaging
Sabbir Ahmed, Hafiz Fareed Ahmed, Erfan Nozari
Various natural and engineered systems, from urban traffic flow to the human brain, can be described by large-scale networked dynamical systems. These systems are similar in being…
Neural Constraints on Cognitive Experience and Mental Health
Bita Shariatpanahi, Erfan Nozari, Soroush Daftarian +9
Understanding how neural dynamics shape cognitive experiences remains a central challenge in neuroscience and psychiatry. Here, we present a novel framework leveraging state-to-out…
Linear-Threshold Network Models for Describing and Analyzing Brain Dynamics
Michael McCreesh, Erfan Nozari, Jorge Cortes
Over the past two decades, an increasing array of control-theoretic methods have been used to study the brain as a complex dynamical system and better understand its structure-func…
