Reaction-Diffusion Systems in Pattern Formation and Pattern Recognition Processes
This paper presents a quick review of reaction-diffusion systems that self-organize spatio-temporal patterns in chemical and biological systems. A pair of reaction-diffusion equations having activator and inhibitor variables is a typical model of equations describing their pattern formation processes. Some of the reaction-diffusion systems can realize several functions of image processing such ...
متن کاملSpatial Pattern of Macrobenthos Distribution in Chabahar Bay before Monson
Abstract In the present study, the structure of macrobenthos communities of Chabahar Bay prior to monsoon in 2016 was investigated. We identified 87 species contain 22 amphipods species, 14 species of other crustaceans, 31 species of molluscs, and 20 polychaets species, where amphipods followed by polychates were dominant taxa. The PERMANOVA test revealed that there is a significant difference...
متن کاملDetection of spatial pattern through independence of thinned processes
Let N , N1 and N2 be point processes such that N1 is obtained from N by homogeneous independent thinning and N2 = N −N1. We give a new elementary proof that N1 and N2 are independent if and only if N is a Poisson point process. We present some applications of this result to test if a homogeneous point process is a Poisson point process.
متن کاملLocalized states in bistable pattern-forming systems.
We present a unifying description close to a spatial bifurcation of localized states, appearing as large amplitude peaks nucleating over a pattern of lower amplitude. Localized states are pinned over a lattice spontaneously generated by the system itself. We show that the phenomenon is generic and requires only the coexistence of two spatially periodic states. At the onset of the spatial bifurc...
متن کاملExternal fluctuations in a pattern-forming instability.
The effect of external fluctuations on the formation of spatial patterns is analyzed by means of a stochastic Swift-Hohenberg model with multiplicative space-correlated noise. Numerical simulations in two dimensions show a shift of the bifurcation point controlled by the intensity of the multiplicative noise. This shift takes place in the ordering direction ~i.e., produces patterns!, but its ma...
