In this paper, we report stochastic resonance (SR) in a single electron turnstile. It has been known that SR emerges by the cooperation of a weak periodic signal and noise in a bistable system. A periodic signal produces switching between…

Here we present a simple stochastic threshold model consisting of a deterministic slowly decaying term and a fast stochastic noise term. The process shows a pseudo-resonance, in the sense that for small and large intensities of the noise…

The response of a neural cell to an external stimulus can follow one of the two patterns: Nonresonant neurons monotonously relax to the resting state after excitation while resonant ones show subthreshold oscillations. We investigate how do…

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 demonstrate the existence of noise-induced periodicity (coherence resonance) in both a discrete-time model and a continuous-time model of an excitable neuron. In particular, we show that the effects of noise added to the fast and slow…

We propose a stochastic dynamical model of noisy neural networks with complex architectures and discuss activation of neural networks by a stimulus, pacemakers and spontaneous activity. This model has a complex phase diagram with…
