Adaptation to criticality through organizational invariance in embodied agents
(Nature Publishing, 2018-05-16)
Many biological and cognitive systems do not operate deep within one or other regime of activity. Instead, they are poised at critical points located at phase transitions in their parameter space. The pervasiveness of ...
Exploring Criticality as a Generic Adaptive Mechanism
(Frontiers Media, 2018-10-02)
The activity of many biological and cognitive systems is not poised deep within a specific regime of activity. Instead, they operate near points of critical behavior located at the boundary between different phases. Certain ...
Integrated Information in the Thermodynamic Limit
(International Neural Network Society, 2019-06)
The capacity to integrate information is a prominent feature of biological, neural, and cognitive processes. Integrated Information Theory (IIT) provides mathematical tools for quantifying the level of integration in a ...
Self-Organized Criticality, Plasticity and Sensorimotor Coupling. Explorations with a Neurorobotic Model in a Behavioural Preference Task
(Public Library of Science, 2015-02-23)
During the last two decades, analysis of 1/f noise in cognitive science has led to a considerable progress in the way we understand the organization of our mental life. However, there is still a lack of specific models ...
A unifying framework for mean-field theories of asymmetric kinetic Ising systems
(Nature, 2021-02-19)
Kinetic Ising models are powerful tools for studying the non-equilibrium dynamics of complex systems. As their behavior is not tractable for large networks, many mean-field methods have been proposed for their analysis, ...
Critical integration in neural and cognitive systems: Beyond power-law scaling as the hallmark of soft assembly
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
Inspired by models of self-organized criticality, a family of measures quantifies long-range correlations in neural and behavioral activity in the form of self-similar (e.g., power-law scaled) patterns across a range of ...
