Toward an interpretation of dynamic neural activity in terms of chaotic dynamical systems

I Tsuda - Behavioral and brain sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
Using the concepts of chaotic dynamical systems, we present an interpretation of dynamic
neural activity found in cortical and subcortical areas. The discovery of chaotic itinerancy in …

The plausibility of a chaotic brain theory

I Tsuda - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
We consider the significance of high-dimensional transitory dynamics in the brain and mind.
In particular, we highlight the roles of high-dimensional chaotic dynamical systems as an …

Symmetries and itineracy in nonlinear systems with many degrees of freedom

M Breakspear, K Friston - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
Tsuda examines the potential contribution of nonlinear dynamical systems, with many
degrees of freedom, to understanding brain function. We offer suggestions concerning …

Chaos and neural coding: Is the binding problem a pseudo-problem?

A Raffone, C Van Leeuwen - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
Tsuda's article suggests several plausible concepts of neurodynamic representation and
processing, with a thoughtful discussion of their neurobiological grounding and formal …

Dynamic neural activity as chaotic itinerancy or heteroclinic cycles?

DL Rowe - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
I question whether chaotic itinerancy is anything new or different to existing research on
heteroclinic cycles (cycling-chaos), and blow-out bifurcations (attractor-bubbling) that …

Learning and control with chaos: From biology to robotics

M Quoy, JP Banquet, E Daucé - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
After critical appraisal of mathematical and biological characteristics of the model, we
discuss how a classical hippocampal neural network expresses functions similar to those of …

Fragmented attractor boundaries in the KIII model of sensory information processing: A potential evidence of Cantor encoding in cognitive processes

R Kozma - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
Spatio-temporal neuro-dynamics is a quickly developing field of brain research and Tsuda's
work is a significant contribution toward establishing theoretical foundations in this area. It is …

Chaotic itinerancy needs embodied cognition to explain memory dynamics

T Ikegami, J Tani - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
Memory dynamics need both stable and unstable properties simultaneously. Hence memory
dynamics cannot be simulated by chaotic itinerant dynamics alone, with no real world …

Low-dimensional versus high-dimensional chaos in brain function–is it an and/or issue?

M Molnár - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
We discuss whether low-dimensional chaos and even nonlinear processes can be traced in
the electrical activity of the brain. Experimental data show that the dimensional complexity of …

The roles played by external input and synaptic modulations in the dynamics of neuronal systems

A Banerjee - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
The framework within which Tsuda proposes his solution for transitory dynamics between
attractor states is flawed from a neurological perspective. We present a more genuine …
