Hamilton energy balance and synchronization behaviors of two functional neurons

Hamiltonian energy in a modified Hindmarsh-Rose model

This paper investigates the Hamiltonian energy of a modified Hindmarsh-Rose (HR) model to observe its effect on short-term memory. A Hamiltonian energy function and its variable function are given in the reduced system with a single node according to Helmholtz's theorem. We consider the role of the coupling strength and the links between neurons in the pattern formation to show that the coupling and cooperative neurons are necessary for generating the fire or a clear short-term memory when all the neurons are in sync. Then, we consider the effect of the degree and external stimulus from other neurons on the emergence and disappearance of short-term memory, which illustrates that generating short-term memory requires much energy, and the coupling strength could further reduce energy consumption. Finally, the dynamical mechanisms of the generation of short-term memory are concluded.

Energy controls wave propagation in a neural network with spatial stimuli

Nervous system has distinct anisotropy and some intrinsic biophysical properties enable neurons present various firing modes in neural activities. In presence of realistic electromagnetic fields, non-uniform radiation activates these neurons with energy diversity. By using a feasible model, energy function is obtained to predict the growth of synaptic connections of these neurons. Distribution of average value of the Hamilton energy function vs. intensity of noisy disturbance can predict the occurrence of coherence resonance, which the neural activities show high regularity by applying noisy disturbance with moderate intensity. From physical viewpoint, the average energy value has similar role average power for the neuron. Non-uniform spatial disturbance is applied and energy is injected into the neural network, statistical synchronization factor is calculated to predict the network synchronization stability and wave propagation. The intensity for field coupling is adaptively controlled by energy diversity between adjacent neurons. Local energy balance will terminate further growth of the coupling intensity; otherwise, heterogeneity is formed in the network due to energy diversity. Furthermore, memristive channel current is introduced into the neuron model for perceiving the effect of electromagnetic induction and radiation, and a memristive neuron is obtained. The circuit implement of memristive circuit depends on the connection to a magnetic flux-controlled memristor into the mentioned neural circuit in an additive branch circuit. The connection and activation of this memristive neural network are controlled under external spatial electromagnetic radiation by capturing enough field energy. Continuous energy collection and exchange generate energy diversity and synaptic connection is created to regulate the synchronous firing patterns and energy balance.
