Two types of criticality in the brain
David Dahmen, Sonja Grün, Markus Diesmann +1
Neural networks with equal excitatory and inhibitory feedback show high computational performance. They operate close to a critical point characterized by the joint activation of l…
Distributions of covariances as a window into the operational regime of neuronal networks
David Dahmen, Markus Diesmann, Moritz Helias
Massively parallel recordings of spiking activity in cortical networks show that covariances vary widely across pairs of neurons. Their low average is well understood, but an expla…
A reaction diffusion-like formalism for plastic neural networks reveals dissipative solitons at criticality
Dmytro Grytskyy, Markus Diesmann, Moritz Helias
Self-organized structures in networks with spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) are likely to play a central role for information processing in the brain. In the present study…
Breaking Synchrony by Heterogeneity in Complex Networks
Michael Denker, Marc Timme, Markus Diesmann +2
For networks of pulse-coupled oscillators with complex connectivity, we demonstrate that in the presence of coupling heterogeneity precisely timed periodic firing patterns replace…
