The research presented in this thesis is on the application of the injection-locked oscillator technique to microwave balanced oscillators. The balanced oscillator design is primarily analysed using the extended resonance technique. A transmission line is connected between the two active devices, so that the active device resonate each other. The electrical length of the transmission line is al...

A model of auditory scene analysis is proposed, which incorporates an attentional mechanism and is implemented using a network of neural oscillators. The core of the model is a two-layer neural oscillator network which performs stream segregation and selection on the basis of oscillatory correlation. A stream is represented by a sychronised oscillator population, whereas different streams are r...

This study presents a novel mathematical modeling framework that is uniquely suited to investigating the structure and dynamics of the sleep-wake regulatory network in the brain stem and hypothalamus. It is based on a population firing rate model formalism that is modified to explicitly include concentration levels of neurotransmitters released to postsynaptic populations. Using this framework,...

Introduction: In order to recognize the image of a natural scene, coherent patterns should be extracted and processed separately for reducing the complexity of the problem, because several objects usually exist in a natural scene. D. L. Wang et al. proposed a nonlinear oscillator network model called locally excitatory, globally inhibitory oscillator networks (LEGION) for image segmentation [1]...

and suppressing fluctuating amplitude of the dynamic wind loads acting on the test model. With 24 suction/jet holes evenly distributed over the cylindrical test model (i.e., the N13 design of the present study), the passive jet control method was found to be able to achieve up to 33.7 % in drag reduction and 90.6 % in fluctuating wind loading suppression, in comparison with the baseline case.
