Complex bodily rhythms are ubiquitous in living organisms. These rhythms arise from
stochastic, nonlinear biological mechanisms interacting with a fluctuating environment …

Background and objective For more than 20 years, Higuchi's fractal dimension (HFD), as a
nonlinear method, has occupied an important place in the analysis of biological signals. The …

A modern introduction to synchronization phenomena, this text presents recent discoveries
and the current state of research in the field, from low-dimensional systems to complex …

Chaos, or exponential sensitivity to small perturbations, appears everywhere in nature.
Moreover, chaos is predicted to play diverse functional roles in living systems. A method for …

Dynamical modeling of neural systems and brain functions has a history of success over the
last half century. This includes, for example, the explanation and prediction of some features …

The search for chaotic patterns has occupied numerous investigators in neuroscience, as in
many other fields of science. Their results and main conclusions are reviewed in the light of …

The onset of regular bursts in a group of irregularly bursting neurons with different individual
properties is one of the most interesting dynamical properties found in neurobiological …

We report experimental studies of synchronization phenomena in a pair of biological
neurons that interact through naturally occurring, electrical coupling. When these neurons …

The existence of the memristor, as a fourth fundamental circuit element, by researchers at
Hewlett Packard (HP) labs in 2008, has attracted much interest since then. This occurs …

To understand the mind and its place in Nature is one of the great intellectual challenges of
our time, a challenge that is both scientific and philosophical. How does cognition influence …
