Ramezani Z, André V, Khizroev S. Modeling the effect of magnetoelectric nanoparticles on neuronal electrical activity: An analog circuit approach. Biointerphases 2024; 19:031001.

Abstract
This paper introduces a physical neuron model that incorporates magnetoelectric nanoparticles (MENPs) as an essential electrical circuit component to wirelessly control local neural activity. Availability of such a model is important as MENPs, due to their magnetoelectric effect, can wirelessly and noninvasively modulate neural activity, which, in turn, has implications for both finding cures for neurological diseases and creating a wireless noninvasive high-resolution brain-machine interface. When placed on a neuronal membrane, MENPs act as magnetic-field-controlled finite-size electric dipoles that generate local electric fields across the membrane in response to magnetic fields, thus allowing to controllably activate local ion channels and locally initiate an action potential. Herein, the neuronal electrical characteristic description is based on ion channel activation and inhibition mechanisms. A MENP-based memristive Hodgkin-Huxley circuit model is extracted by combining the Hodgkin-Huxley model and an equivalent circuit model for a single MENP. In this model, each MENP becomes an integral part of the neuron, thus enabling wireless local control of the neuron's electric circuit itself. Furthermore, the model is expanded to include multiple MENPs to describe collective effects in neural systems.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The applications of artificial intelligence (AI) are increasing in restorative dentistry; however, the AI performance is unclear for dental professionals. The purpose of this narrative review was to evaluate the applications, functions, and accuracy of AI in diverse aspects of restorative dentistry including caries detection, tooth preparation margin detection, tooth restoration design, metal structure casting, dental restoration/implant detection, removable partial denture design, and tooth shade determination. OVERVIEW An electronic search was performed on Medline/PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases. English-language articles, published from January 1, 2000, to March 1, 2022, relevant to the aforementioned aspects were selected using the key terms of artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, artificial neural networks, convolutional neural networks, clustering, soft computing, automated planning, computational learning, computer vision, and automated reasoning as inclusion criteria. A manual search was also performed. Therefore, 157 articles were included, reviewed, and discussed. CONCLUSIONS Based on the current literature, the AI models have shown promising performance in the mentioned aspects when being compared with traditional approaches in terms of accuracy; however, as these models are still in development, more studies are required to validate their accuracy and apply them to routine clinical practice. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE AI with its specific functions has shown successful applications with acceptable accuracy in diverse aspects of restorative dentistry. The understanding of these functions may lead to novel applications with optimal accuracy for AI in restorative dentistry.

Abstract
The bio-brain presents robustness function to external stimulus through its self-adaptive regulation and neural information processing. Drawing from the advantages of the bio-brain to investigate the robustness function of a spiking neural network (SNN) is conducive to the advance of brain-like intelligence. However, the current brain-like model is insufficient in biological rationality. In addition, its evaluation method for anti-disturbance performance is inadequate. To explore the self-adaptive regulation performance of a brain-like model with more biological rationality under external noise, a scale-free spiking neural network(SFSNN) is constructed in this study. Then, the anti-disturbance ability of the SFSNN against impulse noise is investigated, and the anti-disturbance mechanism is further discussed. Our simulation results indicate that: (i) our SFSNN has anti-disturbance ability against impulse noise, and the high-clustering SFSNN outperforms the low-clustering SFSNN in terms of anti-disturbance performance. (ii) The neural information processing in the SFSNN under external noise is clarified, which is a dynamic chain effect of the neuron firing, the synaptic weight, and the topological characteristic. (iii) Our discussion hints that an intrinsic factor of the anti-disturbance ability is the synaptic plasticity, and the network topology is a factor that affects the anti-disturbance ability at the level of performance.

Abstract
Memristive devices operating analogous to biology synapses demonstrate great potential for neuromorphic applications. Here, we reported the space-confined vapor synthesis of ultrathin titanium trisulfide (TiS3) nanosheets, and subsequent laser manufacturing of a TiS3-TiOx-TiS3 in-plane heterojunction for memristor applications. Due to the flux-controlled migration and aggregation of oxygen vacancies, the two-terminal memristor demonstrates reliable "analog" switching behaviors, in which the channel conductance can be incrementally adjusted by tuning the duration and sequence of programming voltage. The device allows the emulation of basic synaptic functions, featuring excellent linearity and symmetry in conductance change during long-term potentiation/depression processes. The small asymmetric ratio of 0.15 enables it to be integrated into a neural network for the pattern recognition task with a high accuracy of 90%. The results demonstrate the great potential of TiS3-based synaptic devices for neuromorphic applications.

Abstract
Biological neurons can exhibit complex coexisting multiple firing patterns dependent on initial conditions. To this end, this paper presents a novel adaptive synapse-based neuron (ASN) model with sine activation function. The ASN model has time-varying equilibria with the variation of externally applied current and its equilibrium stability involves transitions between stable and unstable points through fold and Hopf bifurcations, resulting in complex distributions of attractive regions with heterogeneous multi-stability. Globally coexisting heterogeneous behaviors are studied by bifurcation diagram, phase portrait, dynamical distribution, and basin of attraction. The results show that the number of coexisting heterogeneous attractors can be up to 12, but for a simple neuron model, such a large number of coexisting heterogeneous attractors has not been reported in the relevant literature. Most interestingly, the ASN model also has riddled-like complex basins of attraction and four illustrative examples are depicted by the phase portraits with small changes of the initial conditions. Besides, the ASN model is implemented using a simple microcontroller platform, and various heterogeneous coexisting attractors are acquired experimentally to validate the numerical results.

Abstract
Classical conditioning (CC) and operant conditioning (OC), also known as associative memory, are two of the most fundamental and critical learning mechanisms in the biological brain. However, the existing designs of associative memory memristive circuits mainly focus on CC, and few studies have used memristors to imitate OC at the behavioral level, as well as the OC-CC cascaded associative memories that are widespread in biological learning processes. This work proposes an OC-CC cascaded circuit composed of OC and CC circuits. With the OC memristive circuit, bio-like functions such as random exploration, feedback learning, experience memory, and experience-based decision-making are achieved, which enables the circuit to continuously reshape its own memories and actions to adapt to changing environments. By cascading it with the CC memristive circuit that has the functions of associative learning, forgetting, generalization, and differentiation, the OC-CC cascaded circuit implements richer associative memories and has stronger environmental adaptability. Finally, the proposed circuits can perform on-line in-situ learning and in-memory computing. This is a more brain-like processing method, which is different from the von Neumann architecture. The simulation results of the proposed circuits in PSPICE show that they can simulate the above functions and have advantages in power consumption and hardware overhead. This work provides a possible realization idea for large-scale bionic learning.

Abstract
In this paper, we propose a complex neuro-memristive synapse that exhibits the physiological acts of synaptic potentiation and depression of the human-brain. Specifically, the proposed neuromorphic synapse efficiently imitates the synaptic plasticity, especially long-term potentiation (LTP) and depression (LTD), and short-term facilitation (STF) and depression (STD), phenomena of a biological synapse. Similar to biological synapse, the short- or long-term potentiation (STF and LTP) or depression (STD or LTD) of the memristive synapse are distinguished on the basis of time or repetition of input cycles. The proposed synapse is also designed to exhibit the effect of reuptake and neurotransmitters diffusion processes of a bio-synapse. In addition, it exhibits the distinct bio-realistic attributes, i.e., strong stimulation, exponentially decaying conductance trace of synapse, and voltage dependent synaptic responses, of a neuron. The neuro-memristive synapse is designed in SPICE and its bio-realistic functionalities are demonstrated via various simulations.

Abstract
This article investigates the problem of robust exponential stability of fuzzy switched memristive inertial neural networks (FSMINNs) with time-varying delays on mode-dependent destabilizing impulsive control protocol. The memristive model presented here is treated as a switched system rather than employing the theory of differential inclusion and set-value map. To optimize the robust exponentially stable process and reduce the cost of time, hybrid mode-dependent destabilizing impulsive and adaptive feedback controllers are simultaneously applied to stabilize FSMINNs. In the new model, the multiple impulsive effects exist between two switched modes, and the multiple switched effects may also occur between two impulsive instants. Based on switched analysis techniques, the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy method, and the average dwell time, extended robust exponential stability conditions are derived. Finally, simulation is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the results.

Abstract
This paper proposes a simple locally active memristor whose state equation only consists of linear terms and an easily implementable function and design for its circuit emulator. The effectiveness of the circuit emulator is validated using breadboard experiments and numerical simulations. The proposed circuit emulator has a simple structure, which not only reduces costs but also increases its application value. The power-off plot and DC V-I Loci verify that the memristor is nonvolatile and locally active, respectively. This locally active memristor exhibits low cost, easy physical implementation, and wide locally active region characteristics. Furthermore, a neural model composed of two 2D HR neurons based on the proposed locally active memristor is established. It is found that complicated firing behaviors occur only within the locally active region. A new phenomenon is also discovered that shows coexisting position symmetry for different attractors. The firing pattern transition is then observed via bifurcation analysis. The results of MATLAB simulations are verified from the hardware circuits.

Abstract
In this work, a memristive circuit with affective multi-associative learning function is proposed, which mimics the process of human affective formation. It mainly contains three modules: affective associative learning, affective formation, affective expression. The first module is composed of several affective single-associative learning circuits consisting of memristive neurons and synapses. Memristive neuron will be activated and output pulses if its input exceeds the threshold. After it is activated, memristive neuron can automatically return to the inactive state. Memristive synapse can realize learning and forgetting functions based on the signals from pre- and post-neurons. The learning rule is pre-neuron activated lags behind post-neuron for a short time; the forgetting rule is to repeatedly activate pre-neuron after the emotion is learned. The process of learning or forgetting corresponds to facilitating or inhibiting synaptic weight, that is, decreasing or increasing memristance continuously. Different voltage signals applied to memristors and different parameters of memristors would lead to different synaptic weights which indicate different affective association. The second module can convert affective signals to corresponding emotions. The formed emotions can be shown in a face by the third module. The simulation results in PSPICE show that the proposed circuit system can learn, forget and form emotions like human. If the proposed circuit is further used on a humanoid robot platform through further research, the robot will have the ability of affective interaction with human so that it can be effectively used in affective company and other aspects.

Abstract
This article reviews the nonlinear dynamical attributes, switching kinetics, bifurcation analysis, and physical realization of a family of generic memristors, namely, Chua corsage memristors (CCM). CCM family contains three 1-st order generic memristor dubbed as 2-lobe, 4-lobe, and 6-lobe Chua corsage memristors and can be distinguished in accordance with their asymptotic stable states. The 2-lobe CCM has two asymptotically stable equilibrium states and regarded as a binary memory device. In contrast, the versatile 4-lobe CCM and 6-lobe CCM are regarded as a multi-bit-per-cell memory device as they exhibit three and four asymptotic stable states, respectively, on their complex and diversified dynamic routes. Due to the diversified dynamic routes, the CC memristors exhibit a highly nonlinear DC V-I curve. Unlike most published highly-nonlinear DC V-I curves with several disconnected branches, the DC V-I curves of CCMs are contiguous along with a locally active negative slope region. Moreover, the DC V-I curves and parametric representations of the CCMs are explicitly analytical. Switching kinetics of the CCM family can be demonstrated with universal formulas of exponential state trajectories xn(t), time period tfn, and applied minimum pulse amplitude VA and width Δw. These formulas are regarded universal as they can be applied to any piecewise linear dynamic routes for any DC or pulse input and with any number of segments. When local activity, and bifurcation and chaos theorems are employed, CMMs exhibit unique stable limit cycles spawn from a supercritical Hopf bifurcation along with static attractors. In addition, the nonlinear circuit and system theoretic approach is applied to explain the asymptotic stability behavior of CCMs and to design real memristor emulators using off-the-shelf circuit components.
