A critique of the critical cochlea: Hopf--a bifurcation--is better than none.
The sense of hearing achieves its striking sensitivity, frequency selectivity, and dynamic range through an active process mediated by the inner ear's mechanoreceptive hair cells. Although the active process renders hearing highly nonlinear and produces a wealth of complex behaviors, these various characteristics may be understood as consequences of a simple phenomenon: the Hopf bifurcation. An...

متن کاملIs half of a lens gap junction channel better than none? Focus on "properties of two cataract-associated mutations located in the NH2 terminus of connexin 46".
GAP JUNCTIONS ARE CLUSTERS of intercellular channels that allow the exchange of ions and small metabolites between adjacent cells (1). Intercellular channels form when two hemichannels, one contributed by each of the opposed cells, align in the extracellular space. Hemichannels are oligomers of six connexin proteins, and some of these also have the ability to form functioning channels in nonjun...
متن کاملApproximate anytime inference: Half an answer on time is better than a perfect answer too late
Many branches of computer science rely on logical formalisms as their foundations. Logic provides a very solid foundation on which to build new results: after 2500 years of research, logic provides us with a strong set of theoretical notions: model theory, proof theory, completeness, correctness; there exists a well established body of knowledge concerning properties such expressiveness, decida...
