Successful detection of weak signals is a universal challenge for numerous technical and biological systems and crucially limits signal transduction and transmission. Stochastic resonance (SR) has been identified to have the potential to…
We demonstrate the phenomenon of stochastic resonance (SR) for discrete-time dynamical systems. We investigate various systems that are not necessarily bistable, but do have two well defined states, switching between which is aided by…
Some systems cannot be predicted by classical theories and it is required the development of combined deterministic and stochastic theories that make used of noise for dynamical prediction. Noise is not always an interfering signal which…
We investigate stochastic resonance (SR) in an ensemble of coupled overdamped bistable oscillators driven by colored noise. The networks incorporate the weighted contributions of both pairwise coupling and 2-simplex coupling. Our findings…
The phenomenon of stochastic resonance (SR) is known to occur mostly in bistable systems. However, the question of occurrence of SR in periodic potential systems is not conclusively resolved. Our present numerical work shows that the…
We find that sensory noise delivered together with a weak periodic signal not only enhances nonlinear response of neuronal networks, but also improves the synchronization of the response to the signal. We reveal this phenomenon in neuronal…
Subjective tinnitus (ST) is generally assumed to be a consequence of hearing loss (HL). In animal studies acoustic trauma can lead to behavioral signs of ST, in human studies ST patients without increased hearing thresholds were found to…
Stochastic resonance (SR) - a counter-intuitive phenomenon in which the signal due to a weak periodic force in a nonlinear system can be {\it enhanced} by the addition of external noise - is reviewed. A theoretical approach based on linear…

We study the stochastic resonance (SR) of a flexible polymer surmounting a bistable-potential barrier. Due to the flexibility that can enhance crossing rate and change chain conformations at the barrier, the SR behaviors manifest many…

Stochastic resonance shows that under some circumstances noise can enhance the response of a system to a periodic force. While this effect has been extensively investigated theoretically and demonstrated experimentally in classical systems,…
Stochastic resonance is a phenomenon in which fluctuations enhance an otherwise weak signal. It has been found in many different systems in paleoclimatology, biology, medicine, and physics. The classical stochastic resonance due to thermal…
We discuss stochastic resonance (SR) effects in driven coupled quantum systems. We construct dynamical and information theoretic measures of the system's response that exhibit a non-monotonic behaviour as a function of the noise strength.…
Stochastic resonance (SR) is a phenomenon by which the presence of noise in a non-linear system allows for detection of a weak sub-threshold signal, or in a bi-stable system allows for sub-coercive switching between the two states. Simple…
The goal of this paper is to outline a scenario of emerging stochasticity in high-dimensional highly nonlinear systems, such as genetic regulatory networks (GRN). We focus attention on the fact that in such systems confluence of all the…
Inverse stochastic resonance (ISR) is a phenomenon where noise reduces rather than increases the firing rate of a neuron, sometimes leading to complete quiescence. ISR was first experimentally verified with cerebellar Purkinje neurons.…
We analyze the phenomenon of nonlinear stochastic resonance (SR) in noisy bistable systems driven by pulsed time periodic forces. The driving force contains, within each period, two pulses of equal constant amplitude and duration but…
