Abstract |
Cross-talk among coupled stochastic Hindmarsh Rose (HR) neurons is significantly affected by the topology of the neurons organization. If the coupled stochastic HR neurons are arranged in the form of ring topology with odd number of neurons, the neurons are in anti-phase synchronization with homogeneous distribution of phase ordering of the oscillators. On the other hand, if the coupled HR oscillators are arranged in the ring topology with even number of oscillators, the oscillators are formed into two groups which are anti-phase synchronized, but all the oscillators in each group are in in-phase synchronization. Synchronization of the HR oscillators due to coupling in all topological arrangements is affected by the noise. However, noise can induce optimal coherence of the cross-talked oscillators at a particular value at which signal processing is the most favorable with amplified signal, the phenomenon known as stochastic resonance.
