Synthesizing attractors of Hindmarsh-Rose neuronal systems

In this paper a periodic parameter switching scheme is applied to the Hindmarsh-Rose neuronal system to synthesize certain attractors. Results show numerically, via computer graphic simulations, that the obtained synthesized attractor belongs to the class of all admissible attractors for the Hindmarsh-Rose neuronal system and matches the averaged attractor obtained with the control parameter replaced with the averaged switched parameter values. This feature allows us to imagine that living beings are able to maintain vital behavior while the control parameter switches so that their dynamical behavior is suitable for the given environment.Comment: published in Nonlinear Dynamic

The dynamics of a delayed generalized fractional-order biological networks with predation behavior and material cycle

In this paper, a delayed generalized fractional-order biological networks with predation behavior and material cycle is comprehensively discussed.

Multiobjective nonfragile fuzzy control for nonlinear stochastic financial systems with mixed time delays

In this study, a multiobjective nonfragile control is proposed for a class of stochastic Takagi and Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems with mixed time delays to guarantee the optimal H2 and H∞ performance simultaneously. Firstly, based on the T–S fuzzy model, two form of nonfragile state feedback controllers are designed to stabilize the T–S fuzzy system, that is to say, nonfragile state feedback controllers minimize the H2 and H∞ performance simultaneously. Then, by applying T–S fuzzy approach, the multiobjective H2/H∞ nonfragile fuzzy control problem is transformed into linear matrix inequality (LMI)-constrained multiobjective problem (MOP). In addition, we efficiently solve Pareto optimal solutions for the MOP by employing LMI-based multiobjective evolution algorithm (MOEA). Finally, the validity of this approach is illustrated by a realistic design example

Feedback for neuronal system identification

In order to estimate reliable models from noisy input-output data, system identification techniques usually require that the data be generated by a process with a fading memory. Non-equilibrium systems such as neuronal and chaotic models lack a fading memory. Their identification is challenging, in particular in the presence of input noise. In this thesis, we propose a methodology based on the prediction-error method for the identification of neuronal systems subject to input-additive noise. We build on the fundamental observation that while a neuronal model does not have a fading memory, it can be transformed into a fading memory system by output feedback. Our ideas can be generalized to any non-equilibrium system sharing this property. At the core of the methodology is the use of output feedback in experiment design. We provide a theoretical justification for this design choice, which has been exploited in neurophysiology since the invention of the voltage-clamp experiment. To investigate the problem of feedback for identification, we first address the estimation of simple non-equilibrium systems in Lure form, and show that feedback allows estimating the nonlinearity in a static experiment. We then address the estimation of conductance-based models. Assuming that an informed choice can be made on the elements of the model structure, we show that consistent parameter estimates can be obtained when noise is only present at the system input. Finally, we approach the problem from a black-box perspective, and propose identifying the neuronal internal dynamics using a universal approximator with Generalized Orthogonal Basis Functions.Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) – Brasil (Finance Code 001
