Parsing of Sensory Perception in Oscillatory Networks Through Cross Frequency Coupling of Memory Synchronization: Revelation of Enhanced Learning by Autistic Brain
Abstract: The brain faces many complex problems when dealing with multidimensional signals, which is usually experienced as unitary precepts. We used neuronal spike patterns to determine synchronization dynamics of neuronal activity for computer-generated color patterns in aid of synchronization of neuronal activity for memory formation in autistic subjects. In particular, this gives functional organization of neuronal circuits and interesting relationships between these oscillations and interneuronal coupling that suggest an enhanced mechanism …

Spatiotemporal Analysis of Mean-Field Coupled Lorenz Oscillators for Applications in Electronic Network Design and Chaotic Synchronization
Abstract: This study investigates the spatiotemporal behavior of a network of 100 coupled Lorenz oscillators interacting through mean-field coupling with coupling strength κ = 0.1 and explores its relevance to electronic system design and nonlinear network architectures. While each oscillator follows classical Lorenz dynamics, the coupling mechanism enables collective behavior that resembles synchronization phenomena observed in distributed electronic and communication systems. Numerical simulations reveal rich dynamical characteristics including partial synchronization, emergent …
