Unveiling the intrinsic dynamics of biological and artificial neural networks: from criticality to optimal representations
Guillermo B. Morales, Serena Di Santo, Miguel A. Muñoz
Deciphering the underpinnings of the dynamical processes leading to information transmission, processing, and storing in the brain is a crucial challenge in neuroscience. An inspir…
Quasi-universal scaling in mouse-brain neuronal activity stems from edge-of-instability critical dynamics
Guillermo B. Morales, Serena Di Santo, Miguel A. Munoz
The brain is in a state of perpetual reverberant neural activity, even in the absence of specific tasks or stimuli. Shedding light on the origin and functional significance of such…
Feedback mechanisms for self-organization to the edge of a phase transition
Victor Buendía, Serena di Santo, Juan A. Bonachela +1
Scale-free outbursts of activity are commonly observed in physical, geological, and biological systems. The idea of self-organized criticality (SOC), introduced back in 1987 by Bak…
Self-organized bistability and its possible relevance for brain dynamics
Victor Buendía, Serena di Santo, Pablo Villegas +2
Self-organized bistability (SOB) is the counterpart of 'self-organized criticality' (SOC), for systems tuning themselves to the edge of bistability of a discontinuous phase transit…
Self-Organized Bistability Associated With First-Order Phase Transitions
Serena di Santo, Raffaella Burioni, Alessandro Vezzani +1
Self-organized criticality elucidates the conditions under which physical and biological systems tune themselves to the edge of a second-order phase transition, with scale invarian…
