Analogue modelling an array of the FitzHugh–Nagumo oscillators
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract. The purpose of the paper is to show that analogue electronic modelling is an extremely fast technique compared to conventional digital computing, especially when solving large sets of coupled nonlinear differential equations. An array of thirty FitzHugh–Nagumo type electronic oscillators, modelling dynamics of the brain neurons, is considered. The decrease of time consumption by a factor of several thousands is demonstrated. The work delivers a perspective of how to implement convenient analogue models of complex dynamical networks.

An improved pseudospectral approximation of generalized Burger-Huxley and Fitzhugh-Nagumo equations
In this research paper, an improved Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto pseudospectral approximation of nonlinear Burger-Huxley and Fitzhugh- Nagumo equations have been presented. The method employs chebyshev Gauss-Labatto points in time and space to obtain spectral accuracy. The mapping has introduced and transformed the initial-boundary value non-homogeneous problem to homogeneous problem. The main probl...

In this paper we adopt a correlation approach to neuronal modeling of visual perception, using oscillations. We propose a hierarchy of processing modules corresponding to di erent levels of representation. The rst layer consists of an array of FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators, which receive a grey{level image as external input. The dynamic behaviour of the coupled oscillators is rigorously investiga...

In this paper we adopt a temporal coding approach to neuronal modeling of the visual cortex, using oscillations. We propose a hierarchy of three processing modules corresponding to di erent levels of representation. The rst layer encodes the input image (stimulus) into an array of units, while the second layer consists of a network of FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators. The dynamical behaviour of the ...
متن کاملPattern Formation of the FitzHugh-Nagumo Model: Cellular Automata Approach
FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model is a famous Reaction-Diffusion System which first introduced for the conduction of electrical impulses along a nerve fiber. This model is also considered as an abstract model for pattern formation. Here, we have used the Cellular Automata method to simulate the pattern formation of the FHN model. It is shown that the pattern of this model is very similar to those...
متن کاملA Network of FitzHugh{Nagumo Oscillators for Object Segmentation
| This paper adresses the problem of modeling object segmentation in the visual cortex using oscillations. The proposed architecture is based on a network of locally connected FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators which receive graded external input. We show the suitability of such a network to encode the stimulus since the amplitude of oscillations increases monotonically as a function of the input in t...
