Noise can induce coherent oscillations in excitable systems without periodic orbits. Here, we establish a method to derive a hybrid system approximating the noise-induced coherent oscillations in excitable systems and further perform phase…
Theoretical models that describe oscillations in biological systems are often either a limit cycle oscillator, where the deterministic nonlinear dynamics gives sustained periodic oscillations, or a noise-induced oscillator, where a fixed…

The human brain is autonomously active, being characterized by a self-sustained neural activity which would be present even in the absence of external sensory stimuli. Here we study the interrelation between the self-sustained activity in…
Neural dynamics of energy-based models are governed by energy minimization and the patterns stored in the network are retrieved when the system reaches equilibrium. However, when the system is driven by time-varying external input, the…
This paper considers the problem of stabilizing a discrete-time non-linear stochastic system over a finite capacity noiseless channel. Our focus is on systems which decompose into a stable and unstable component, and the stability notion…
Experimental characterization of neuronal dynamics involves recording both of spontaneous activity patterns and of responses to transient and sustained inputs. While much theoretical attention has been devoted to the spontaneous activity of…
