Auditory power-law activation-avalanches exhibit a fundamental computational ground-state

Ruedi Stoop, Florian Gomez

The cochlea provides a biological information-processing paradigm that we only begin to under- stand in its full complexity. Our work reveals an interacting network of strongly non…

Hopf-type neurons increase input-sensitivity by forming forcing-coupled ensembles

Florian Gomez, Tom Lorimer, Ruedi Stoop

Astounding properties of biological sensors can often be mapped onto a dynamical system in the vicinity a bifurcation. For mammalian hearing, a Hopf bifurcation description has bee…

Two universal physical principles shape the power-law statistics of real-world networks

Tom Lorimer, Florian Gomez, Ruedi Stoop

The study of complex networks has pursued an understanding of macroscopic behavior by focusing on power-laws in microscopic observables. Here, we uncover two universal fundamental…

Mammalian cochlea as a physics guided evolution-optimized hearing sensor

Tom Lorimer, Florian Gomez, Ruedi Stoop

Nonlinear physics plays an essential role in hearing, from sound signal generation to sound sensing to the processing of complex sound environments. We demonstrate that the evoluti…

A hierarchical coding-window model of Parkinson's disease

Daniela Sabrina Andres, Florian Gomez, Daniel Cerquetti +2

Parkinson's disease is an ongoing challenge to theoretical neuroscience and to medical treatment. During the evolution of the disease, neurodegeneration leads to physiological and…

Human pitch is pre-cortical: The essential role of the cochlear fluid

Florian Gomez, Ruedi Stoop

The perceived pitch of a complex harmonic sound changes if the partials of the sound are frequency-shifted by a fixed amount. Simple mathematical rules that the perceived pitch cou…
