The effects of demographic stochasticity in the long term behaviour of endemic infectious diseases have been considered for long as a necessary addition to an underlying deterministic theory. The latter would explain the regular behaviour…
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…

Electrophysiological brain signals, such as electroencephalography (EEG), exhibit both periodic and aperiodic components, with the latter often modeled as 1/f noise and considered critical to cognitive and neurological processes. Although…
