External noise control in inherently stochastic biological systems.
Biological systems are often subject to external noise from signal stimuli and environmental perturbations, as well as noises in the intracellular signal transduction pathway. Can different stochastic fluctuations interact to give rise to new emerging behaviors? How can a system reduce noise effects while still being capable of detecting changes in the input signal? Here, we study analytically ...
متن کاملEnhanced corticomuscular coherence by external stochastic noise
Noise can have beneficial effects as shown by the stochastic resonance (SR) phenomenon which is characterized by performance improvement when an optimal noise is added. Modern attempts to improve human performance utilize this phenomenon. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether performance improvement by addition of optimum noise (ON) is related to increased cortical motor s...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Fields Detectability in Stochastic HH-Like Neuronal Systems: Stochastic Resonance Paradigm Dependent on Biological Noise
Biological noise has already been shown to play a constructive role in neuronal processing and reliability, according to a phenomenon known as stochastic resonance (SR). This phenomenon has been previously observed by the authors in the detection of electromagnetic (EM) fields in the case of an additive white Gaussian input, roughly approximating the ensemble of noise sources. Recently, attenti...
متن کاملInternal noise determines external stochastic resonance in visual perception
We provide the first experimental evidence that the internal noise level determines whether external noise can enhance the detectability of a weak signal. We conduct a visual detection experiment in the absence and presence of visual noise. We define three indices of external stochastic resonance effects, consider the spread of the psychometric function without external noise as an internal noi...
متن کاملCooperativity in biological systems
Living organisms can sense and respond to external and internal stimuli. Response isdemonstrated in many forms including modulation of gene expression profiles, motility,secretion, cell death, etc. Nevertheless, all forms share a basic property: they depend on sensingsmall changes in the concentration of an effector molecule or subtle conformational changes ina protein and invoking the appropri...
