Limits to the precision of gradient sensing with spatial communication and temporal integration
Andrew Mugler, Andre Levchenko, Ilya Nemenman
Gradient sensing requires at least two measurements at different points in space. These measurements must then be communicated to a common location to be compared, which is unavoid…
