Network Model With Reduced Metabolic Rate Predicts Spatial Synchrony of Neuronal Activity

In a cerebral hypometabolic state, cortical neurons exhibit slow synchronous oscillatory activity with sparse firing. How such a synchronization spatially organizes as the cerebral metabolic rate decreases have not been systemically investigated. We developed a network model of leaky integrate-and-fire neurons with an additional dependency on ATP dynamics. Neurons were scattered in a 2D space, […]

How Many Muscles? Optimal Muscles Set Search for Optimizing Myocontrol Performance

In myo-control, for computational and setup constraints, the measurement of a high number of muscles is not always possible: the choice of the muscle set to use in a myo-control strategy depends on the desired application scope and a search for a reduced muscle set, tailored to the application, has never been performed. The identification […]
