The Euler characteristic as a topological marker for outbreaks in vector-borne disease
(2022-12-01)
Abstract. Epidemic outbreaks represent a significant concern for the current state of global health, particularly in Brazil, the epicentre of several vector-borne disease outbreaks and where epidemic control is still a ...
Geometry of spiking patterns in early visual cortex: A topological data analytic approach
(2022-11-16)
In the brain, spiking patterns live in a high-dimensional space of neurons and time. Thus, determining the intrinsic structure of this space presents a theoretical and experimental challenge. To address this challenge, we ...
Multiple forms of working memory emerge from synapse-astrocyte interactions in a neuron-glia network model
(2022-10-25)
Persistent activity in populations of neurons, time-varying activity across a neural population, or activity-silent mechanisms carried out by hidden internal states of the neural population have been proposed as different ...
Interaction Mechanism Between the HSV-1 Glycoprotein B and the Antimicrobial Peptide Amyloid-β
(2022-09-19)
Background: Unravelling the mystery of Alzheimer's disease (AD) requires urgent resolution given the worldwide increase of the aging population. There is a growing concern that the current leading AD hypothesis, the amyloid ...
Fock-space approach to stochastic susceptible-infected-recovered models
(2022-07-25)
We investigate the stochastic susceptible-infected-recovered (SIR) model of infectious disease dynamics in the Fock-space approach. In contrast to conventional SIR models based on ordinary differential equations for the ...
A phenomenological model for interfacial water near hydrophilic polymers
(2022-06-30)
We propose a minimalist phenomenological model for the ‘interfacial water’ phenomenon that
occurs near hydrophilic polymeric surfaces. We achieve this by combining a Ginzburg–Landau
approach with Maxwell’s equations which ...
Immunosenescence and Altered Vaccine Efficiency in Older Subjects: A Myth Difficult to Change
(2022-04-01)
Organismal ageing is associated with many physiological changes, including differences in the immune system of most animals. These differences are often considered to be a key cause of age-associated diseases as well as ...
Classification of bursting patterns: A tale of two ducks
(2022-01-20)
Bursting is one of the fundamental rhythms that excitable cells can generate either in response to incoming stimuli or intrinsically. It has been a topic of intense research in computational biology for several decades. ...
An Optimizing Method for Performance and Resource Utilization in Quantum Machine Learning Circuits
(2022-01)
Quantum computing is a new and advanced topic that refers to calculations based on the principles of quantum mechanics. Itmakes certain kinds of problems be solved easier compared to classical computers. This advantage of ...
