Walking exhibits stride-to-stride variations. Given ongoing perturbations, these variations
critically support continuous adaptations between the goal-directed organism and its …

During infancy, the human brain rapidly expands in size and complexity as neural networks
mature and new information is incorporated at an accelerating pace. Recently, it was shown …

The effects of nonlocal and fractal connectivity are investigated in a network of Leaky
Integrate-and-Fire (LIF) elements. The idea of fractal coupling originates from the …

Experimental work, both in vitro and in vivo, reveals the occurrence of neural avalanches
with an inverse power law distribution in size and time duration. These properties are …

We study complex processes whose evolution in time rests on the occurrence of a large and
random number of events. The mean time interval between two consecutive critical events is …

The key purpose of this article is to establish a connection between two emerging fields of
research in theoretical biology. The former focuses on the concept of criticality borrowed …

In the wide literature on the brain and neural network dynamics the notion of criticality is
being adopted by an increasing number of researchers, with no general agreement on its …

The crucial aspect of this demonstration is the discovery of renewal events, hidden in the
computed dynamics of a multifractal metronome, which enables the replacement of the …

The purpose of this book is to layout in broad terms a new technique for extracting
information from complex empirical datasets drawn from medical phenomena. This …

The adoption of the formalism of fractional calculus is an elegant way to simulate either
subdiffusion or superdiffusion from within a renewal perspective where the occurrence of an …
