چکیده

We discuss different quantifiers of stochastic resonance (SR) and how far they are mathematically related with each other. Specifically, we address bona fide SR in terms of the areas of the hysteresis loops and of the first peaks in the residence time distributions. We demonstrate a surprisingly good agreement of these two SR quantifiers experimentally for colloidal particles in periodically modulated laser traps. A simple theoretical model is established, which reproduces the experimental observations very well.

The Impact of Doping on the Anti-Resonance Effects of A11g Mode of InSe

A comparative study of anti-resonance effects in InSe and InSe doped with GaS, using the resonant Raman spectroscopy is presented. The nonpolar optical phonon of  symmetry in InSe exhibits a pronounced decrease in the Raman cross-section at excitation energy 2.585 eV. In InSe doped with GaS samples, it is found that the anti-resonance behavior decreases as doping contents are increased. To acco...

Modelling stochastic resonance in humans: the influence of lapse rate

Abstract Adding noise to a sensory signal generally decreases human performance. However noise can improve performance too, due to a process called stochastic resonance (SR). This paradoxical effect may be exploited in psychophysical experiments, to provide additional insights into how the sensory system deals with noise. Here, I develop a model for stochastic resonance to study the influence o...

Nonlinear Signal Propagation Enhanced by noise via Stochastic Resonance

A model is developed for a nonlinear line of coupled noisy threshold elements. The propagation on the line of various information-carrying signals, periodic, aperiodic or random, is analyzed. Different measures quantifying the efficacy of the propagation are calculated, including signal-to-noise ratio, cross-correlation measures, information-theoretic measures and propagation length. These meas...

Enhanced coding for exponentially distributed signals using suprathreshold stochastic resonance

Our previous work on stochastic resonance (SR) in threshold based systems proved that the SR effect is dependent on the nature of the input signal distribution; more specifically, for certain types of signal distribution SR is not observed [Das A, Stocks NG, Nikitin A, Hines EL. Quantifying stochastic resonance in a single threshold detector for random aperiodic signals. Fluctuation Noise Lett ...

Stochastic resonance

Over the last two decades, stochastic resonance has continuously attracted considerable attention. The term is given to a phenomenon that is manifest in nonlinear systems whereby generally feeble input information (such as a weak signal) can be be amplified and optimized by the assistance of noise. The effect requires three basic ingredients: (i) an energetic activation barrier or, more general...
