Biological feedback control—Respect the loops

H El-Samad - Cell Systems, 2021 - cell.com
We, and all organisms, are an evolutionary masterpiece of multiscale feedback control.
Feedback loops enable our cells to grow and then stop at the right size, to divide and self …

Spiking control systems

R Sepulchre - Proceedings of the IEEE, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Spikes and rhythms organize control and communication in the animal world, in contrast to

Hysteresis, rectification, and relaxation times of nanofluidic pores for neuromorphic circuit applications

J Bisquert - Advanced Physics Research, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Based on the emergence of iontronic fluidic components for brain‐inspired computation, the
general dynamical behavior of nanopore channels is discussed. The main memory effects of …

Neurodynamics

S Coombes, KCA Wedgwood - Texts in applied mathematics, 2023 - Springer
This is a book about 'Neurodynamics'. What we mean is that this is a book about how ideas

Analysis and control of agreement and disagreement opinion cascades

A Franci, A Bizyaeva, S Park, NE Leonard - Swarm Intelligence, 2021 - Springer
We introduce and analyze a continuous time and state-space model of opinion cascades on
networks of large numbers of agents that form opinions about two or more options. By …

Control across scales by positive and negative feedback

R Sepulchre, G Drion, A Franci - Annual Review of Control …, 2019 - annualreviews.org
Feedback is a key element of regulation, as it shapes the sensitivity of a process to its
environment. Positive feedback upregulates, and negative feedback downregulates. Many …

Neuromodulation of neuromorphic circuits

L Ribar, R Sepulchre - … Transactions on Circuits and Systems I …, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We present a novel methodology to enable control of a neuromorphic circuit in close
analogy with the physiological neuromodulation of a single neuron. The methodology is …

Neuromorphic control: Designing multiscale mixed-feedback systems

L Ribar, R Sepulchre - IEEE Control Systems Magazine, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Neuromorphic electronic engineering takes inspiration from the biological organization of
nervous systems to rethink the technology of computing, sensing, and actuating (see …

Co-opting evo-devo concepts for new insights into mechanisms of behavioural diversity

KL Hoke, E Adkins-Regan, AH Bass… - Journal of …, 2019 - journals.biologists.com
We propose that insights from the field of evolutionary developmental biology (or 'evo-devo')
provide a framework for an integrated understanding of the origins of behavioural diversity …

Cellular switches orchestrate rhythmic circuits

G Drion, A Franci, R Sepulchre - Biological cybernetics, 2019 - Springer
Small inhibitory neuronal circuits have long been identified as key neuronal motifs to
generate and modulate the coexisting rhythms of various motor functions. Our paper …
