Abstract
Electromagnetic stimulation is an important neuromodulation technique that modulates the electrical activity of neurons and affects cortical excitability for the purpose of modulating the nervous system. The phenomenon of inverse stochastic resonance is a response mechanism of the biological nervous system to external signals and plays an important role in the signal processing of the nervous system. In this paper, a small-world neural network with electrical synaptic connections was constructed, and the inverse stochastic resonance of the small-world neural network under electromagnetic stimulation was investigated by analyzing the dynamics of the neural network. The results showed that: the Levy channel noise under electromagnetic stimulation could cause the occurrence of inverse stochastic resonance in small-world neural networks; the characteristic index and location parameter of the noise had significant effects on the intensity and duration of the inverse stochastic resonance in neural networks; the larger the probability of randomly adding edges and the number of nearest neighbor nodes in small-world networks, the more favorable the anti-stochastic resonance was; by adjusting the electromagnetic stimulation parameters, a dual regulation of the inverse stochastic resonance of the neural network can be achieved. The results of this study provide some theoretical support for exploring the regulation mechanism of electromagnetic nerve stimulation technology and the signal processing mechanism of nervous system.

Abstract
Synchronization of interconnecting units is one of the hottest topics many researchers are interested in. In addition, this emerging phenomenon is responsible for many biological processes, and thus, the synchronization of interacting neurons is an important field of study in neuroscience. Employing the memristive Chialvo (mChialvo) neuron map, this paper investigates the effect of electrical, inner-linking, chemical, and hybrid coupling functions on the synchronization state of a neuronal network with regular structure. Master stability function (MSF) analysis is performed to obtain the necessary conditions for synchronizing the built networks. Afterward, the MSF-based results are confirmed by calculating the synchronization error. Besides, the dynamics of the synchronous neurons are discussed based on the bifurcation analysis. Our results suggest that, compared to the electrical and inner-linking functions, chemical synapses facilitate mChialvo neurons' synchronization since the neurons can achieve synchrony with a negligible chemical coupling strength. Further studies reveal that based on the active synapses, coupled mChialvo neurons can reach cluster synchronization, chimera state, sine-like synchronization, phase synchronization, and cluster phase synchronization.

Abstract
Every successful species invasion is facilitated by both ecological and evolutionary mechanisms. The evolution of population's fitness related traits acts as functional adaptations to Allee effects. This trade-off increases predatory success at an expense of elevated death rate of potential predators. We address our queries employing an eco-evolutionary modeling approach that provides a means of circumventing inverse density-dependent effect. In the absence of evolution, the ecological system potentially exhibits multi-stable configurations under identical ecological conditions by allowing different bifurcation scenarios with the Allee effect. The model predicts a high risk of catastrophic extinction of interacting populations around different types of saddle-node bifurcations resulting from the increased Allee effect. We adopt the game-theoretic approach to derive the analytical conditions for the emergence of evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS) when the ecological system possesses asymptotically stable steady states as well as population cycles. We establish that ESSs occur at those values of adopted evolutionary strategies that are local optima of some functional forms of model parameters. Overall, our theoretical study provides important ecological insights in predicting successful biological invasions in the light of evolution.

Abstract
Purkinje cells exhibit a reduction of the mean firing rate at intermediate-noise intensities, which is somewhat reminiscent of the response enhancement known as "stochastic resonance" (SR). Although the comparison with the stochastic resonance ends here, the current phenomenon has been given the name "inverse stochastic resonance" (ISR). Recent research has demonstrated that the ISR effect, like its close relative "nonstandard SR" [or, more correctly, noise-induced activity amplification (NIAA)], has been shown to stem from the weak-noise quenching of the initial distribution, in bistable regimes where the metastable state has a larger attraction basin than the global minimum. To understand the underlying mechanism of the ISR and NIAA phenomena, we study the probability distribution function of a one-dimensional system subjected to a bistable potential that has the property of symmetry, i.e., if we change the sign of one of its parameters, we can obtain both phenomena with the same properties in the depth of the wells and the width of their basins of attraction subjected to Gaussian white noise with variable intensity. Previous work has shown that one can theoretically determine the probability distribution function using the convex sum between the behavior at small and high noise intensities. To determine the probability distribution function more precisely, we resort to the "weighted ensemble Brownian dynamics simulation" model, which provides an accurate estimate of the probability distribution function for both low and high noise intensities and, most importantly, for the transition of both behaviors. In this way, on the one hand, we show that both phenomena emerge from a metastable system where, in the case of ISR, the global minimum of the system is in a state of lower activity, while in the case of NIAA, the global minimum is in a state of increased activity, the importance of which does not depend on the width of the basins of attraction. On the other hand, we see that quantifiers such as Fisher information, statistical complexity, and especially Shannon entropy fail to distinguish them, but they show the existence of the mentioned phenomena. Thus, noise management may well be a mechanism by which Purkinje cells find an efficient way to transmit information in the cerebral cortex.

Abstract
Efficient processing and transfer of information in neurons have been linked to noise-induced resonance phenomena such as coherence resonance (CR), and adaptive rules in neural networks have been mostly linked to two prevalent mechanisms: spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) and homeostatic structural plasticity (HSP). Thus this paper investigates CR in small-world and random adaptive networks of Hodgkin-Huxley neurons driven by STDP and HSP. Our numerical study indicates that the degree of CR strongly depends, and in different ways, on the adjusting rate parameter P, which controls STDP, on the characteristic rewiring frequency parameter F, which controls HSP, and on the parameters of the network topology. In particular, we found two robust behaviors. (i) Decreasing P (which enhances the weakening effect of STDP on synaptic weights) and decreasing F (which slows down the swapping rate of synapses between neurons) always leads to higher degrees of CR in small-world and random networks, provided that the synaptic time delay parameter τ_{c} has some appropriate values. (ii) Increasing the synaptic time delay τ_{c} induces multiple CR (MCR)-the occurrence of multiple peaks in the degree of coherence as τ_{c} changes-in small-world and random networks, with MCR becoming more pronounced at smaller values of P and F. Our results imply that STDP and HSP can jointly play an essential role in enhancing the time precision of firing necessary for optimal information processing and transfer in neural systems and could thus have applications in designing networks of noisy artificial neural circuits engineered to use CR to optimize information processing and transfer.

Abstract
The influences of chaotic activity and time delay on the transmission of the sub-threshold signal (STS) in a single FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron and coupled neuronal networks are studied. It is found that a moderate chaotic activity level can enhance the system's detection and transmission of STS. This phenomenon is known as chaotic resonance (CR). In a single neuron, the large amplitude and small period of the STS have a positive effect on the CR phenomenon. In the coupled neuronal network, however, the signal transmission performance of chemical synapses is better than that of electrical synapses. The time delay can determine the trend of the system response, and the multiple chaotic resonances phenomenon is observed upon fine-tuning the time delay length. Both sub-harmonic chaotic resonance and chaotic anti-resonance appear when the STS period and time delay are locked. In chained networks, the signal transmission performance between electrical synapses attenuates continuously. Conversely, the performance between chemical synapses reaches a steady state.

Abstract
We systematically investigate the response of neurons to oscillatory currents and synaptic-like inputs and we extend our investigation to non-structured synaptic-like spiking inputs with more realistic distributions of presynaptic spike times. We use two types of chirp-like inputs consisting of (i) a sequence of cycles with discretely increasing frequencies over time, and (ii) a sequence having the same cycles arranged in an arbitrary order. We develop and use a number of frequency-dependent voltage response metrics to capture the different aspects of the voltage response, including the standard impedance (Z) and the peak-to-trough amplitude envelope ([Formula: see text]) profiles. We show that Z-resonant cells (cells that exhibit subthreshold resonance in response to sinusoidal inputs) also show [Formula: see text]-resonance in response to sinusoidal inputs, but generally do not (or do it very mildly) in response to square-wave and synaptic-like inputs. In the latter cases the resonant response using Z is not predictive of the preferred frequencies at which the neurons spike when the input amplitude is increased above subthreshold levels. We also show that responses to conductance-based synaptic-like inputs are attenuated as compared to the response to current-based synaptic-like inputs, thus providing an explanation to previous experimental results. These response patterns were strongly dependent on the intrinsic properties of the participating neurons, in particular whether the unperturbed Z-resonant cells had a stable node or a focus. In addition, we show that variability emerges in response to chirp-like inputs with arbitrarily ordered patterns where all signals (trials) in a given protocol have the same frequency content and the only source of uncertainty is the subset of all possible permutations of cycles chosen for a given protocol. This variability is the result of the multiple different ways in which the autonomous transient dynamics is activated across cycles in each signal (different cycle orderings) and across trials. We extend our results to include high-rate Poisson distributed current- and conductance-based synaptic inputs and compare them with similar results using additive Gaussian white noise. We show that the responses to both Poisson-distributed synaptic inputs are attenuated with respect to the responses to Gaussian white noise. For cells that exhibit oscillatory responses to Gaussian white noise (band-pass filters), the response to conductance-based synaptic inputs are low-pass filters, while the response to current-based synaptic inputs may remain band-pass filters, consistent with experimental findings. Our results shed light on the mechanisms of communication of oscillatory activity among neurons in a network via subthreshold oscillations and resonance and the generation of network resonance.

Abstract
We study synchronization in neuronal ensembles subject to long-range electrical gap junctions which are time-varying. As a representative example, we consider Hindmarsh-Rose neurons interacting based upon temporal long-range connections through electrical couplings. In particular, we adopt the connections associated with the direct 1-path network to form a small-world network and follow-up with the corresponding long-range network. Further, the underlying direct small-world network is allowed to temporally change; hence, all long-range connections are also temporal, which makes the model much more realistic from the neurological perspective. This time-varying long-range network is formed by rewiring each link of the underlying 1-path network stochastically with a characteristic rewiring probability pr, and accordingly all indirect k(>1)-path networks become temporal. The critical interaction strength to reach complete neuronal synchrony is much lower when we take up rapidly switching long-range interactions. We employ the master stability function formalism in order to characterize the local stability of the state of synchronization. The analytically derived stability condition for the complete synchrony state agrees well with the numerical results. Our work strengthens the understanding of time-varying long-range interactions in neuronal ensembles.

Abstract
The concept of resonance in nonlinear systems is crucial and traditionally refers to a specific realization of maximum response provoked by a particular external perturbation. Depending on the system and the nature of perturbation, many different resonance types have been identified in various fields of science. A prominent example is in neuroscience where it has been widely accepted that a neural system may exhibit resonances at microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic scales and benefit from such resonances in various tasks. In this context, the two well-known forms are stochastic and vibrational resonance phenomena which manifest that detection and propagation of a feeble information signal in neural structures can be enhanced by additional perturbations via these two resonance mechanisms. Given the importance of network architecture in proper functioning of the nervous system, we here present a review of recent studies on stochastic and vibrational resonance phenomena in neuronal media, focusing mainly on their emergence in complex networks of neurons as well as in simple network structures that represent local behaviours of neuron communities. From this perspective, we aim to provide a secure guide by including theoretical and experimental approaches that analyse in detail possible reasons and necessary conditions for the appearance of stochastic resonance and vibrational resonance in neural systems. This article is part of the theme issue 'Vibrational and stochastic resonance in driven nonlinear systems (part 2)'.

Abstract
Recent findings have revealed that not only neurons but also astrocytes, a special type of glial cells, are major players of neuronal information processing. It is now widely accepted that they contribute to the regulation of their microenvironment by cross-talking with neurons via gliotransmitters. In this context, we here study the phenomenon of vibrational resonance in neurons by considering their interaction with astrocytes. Our analysis of a neuron-astrocyte pair reveals that intracellular dynamics of astrocytes can induce a double vibrational resonance effect in the weak signal detection performance of a neuron, exhibiting two distinct wells centred at different high-frequency driving amplitudes. We also identify the underlying mechanism of this behaviour, showing that the interaction of widely separated time scales of neurons, astrocytes and driving signals is the key factor for the emergence and control of double vibrational resonance. This article is part of the theme issue 'Vibrational and stochastic resonance in driven nonlinear systems (part 2)'.

Abstract
Noise is ubiquitous and has been verified to play constructive roles in various systems, among which the inverse stochastic resonance (ISR) has aroused much attention in contrast to positive effects such as stochastic resonance. The ISR has been observed in both bistable and monostable systems for which the mechanisms are revealed as noise-induced biased switching and noise-enhanced stability, respectively. In this paper, we investigate the ISR phenomenon in the monostable and bistable Hindmarsh-Rose neurons within a unified framework of large deviation theory. The critical noise strengths for both cases can be obtained by matching the timescales between noise-induced boundary crossing and the limit cycle. Furthermore, different stages of ISR are revealed by the bursting frequency distribution, where the gradual increase of the peak bursting frequency can also be explained within the same framework. The perspective and results in this paper may shed some light on the understanding of the noise-induced complex phenomena in stochastic dynamical systems.

Abstract
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a psychiatric disease with a prevalence of 2%-7.5% among the population. It is characterized by three core symptoms: hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention. Although the majority of ADHD patients respond to a combination of psychotherapy and standard pharmacotherapy with Methylphenidate, there is a significant minority of patients that do not respond to these substances. Additionally, the treatment with Methylphenidate can cause a variety of side effects like insomnia, headache, decreased appetite, and xerostomia. It would be favorable to have an alternative treatment-option that could circumnavigate the shortcomings of traditional pharmacological treatments. Recent results show that transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) might offer a promising approach. Since research has shown that ADHD is associated with various alterations in brain activity, brain stimulation methods targeting different facets of neuronal functions are currently under investigation. In this article, we briefly review different tES techniques like transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS), transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) and explain the modes of action of these brain stimulations. We will specifically focus on transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) as a potential method of treating ADHD.

Abstract
The effects of network topologies on signal propagation are studied in noisy feedforward neural network in detail, where the network topologies are modulated by changing both the in-degree and out-degree distributions of FFNs as identical, uniform and exponential respectively. Stochastic resonance appeared in three FFNs when the same external stimuli and noise are applied to the three different network topologies. It is found that optimal noise intensity decreases with the increase of network's layer index. Meanwhile, the Q index of FFN with identical distribution is higher than that of the other two FFNs, indicating that the synchronization between the neuronal firing activities and the external stimuli is more obvious in FFN with identical distribution. The optimal parameter regions for the time cycle of external stimuli and the noise intensity are found for three FFNs, in which the resonance is more easily induced when the parameters of stimuli are set in this region. Furthermore, the relationship between the in-degree, the average membrane potential and the resonance performance is studied at the neuronal level, where it is found that both the average membrane potentials and the Q indexes of neurons in FFN with identical degree distribution is more consistent with each other than that of the other two FFNs due to their network topologies. In summary, the simulations here indicate that the network topologies play essential roles in affecting the signal propagation of FFNs.

Abstract
Inverse stochastic resonance comprises a nonlinear response of an oscillatory system to noise where the frequency of noise-perturbed oscillations becomes minimal at an intermediate noise level. We demonstrate two generic scenarios for inverse stochastic resonance by considering a paradigmatic model of two adaptively coupled stochastic active rotators whose local dynamics is close to a bifurcation threshold. In the first scenario, shown for the two rotators in the excitable regime, inverse stochastic resonance emerges due to a biased switching between the oscillatory and the quasi-stationary metastable states derived from the attractors of the noiseless system. In the second scenario, illustrated for the rotators in the oscillatory regime, inverse stochastic resonance arises due to a trapping effect associated with a noise-enhanced stability of an unstable fixed point. The details of the mechanisms behind the resonant effect are explained in terms of slow-fast analysis of the corresponding noiseless systems.

Abstract
Learning in neural networks inspired by brain tissue has been studied for machine learning applications. However, existing works primarily focused on the concept of synaptic weight modulation, and other aspects of neuronal interactions, such as non-synaptic mechanisms, have been neglected. Non-synaptic interaction mechanisms have been shown to play significant roles in the brain, and four classes of these mechanisms can be highlighted: (i) electrotonic coupling; (ii) ephaptic interactions; (iii) electric field effects; and iv) extracellular ionic fluctuations. In this work, we proposed simple rules for learning inspired by recent findings in machine learning adapted to a realistic spiking neural network. We show that the inclusion of non-synaptic interaction mechanisms improves cell assembly convergence. By including extracellular ionic fluctuation represented by the extracellular electrodiffusion in the network, we showed the importance of these mechanisms to improve cell assembly convergence. Additionally, we observed a variety of electrophysiological patterns of neuronal activity, particularly bursting and synchronism when the convergence is improved.

Abstract
Complex networks are the subject of fundamental interest from the scientific community at large. Several metrics have been introduced to characterize the structure of these networks, such as the degree distribution, degree correlation, path length, clustering coefficient, centrality measures, etc. Another important feature is the presence of network symmetries. In particular, the effect of these symmetries has been studied in the context of network synchronization, where they have been used to predict the emergence and stability of cluster synchronous states. Here, we provide theoretical, numerical, and experimental evidence that network symmetries play a role in a substantially broader class of dynamical models on networks, including epidemics, game theory, communication, and coupled excitable systems; namely, we see that in all these models, nodes that are related by a symmetry relation show the same time-averaged dynamical properties. This discovery leads us to propose reduction techniques for exact, yet minimal, simulation of complex networks dynamics, which we show are effective in order to optimize the use of computational resources, such as computation time and memory.

Abstract
The classical notion of excitability refers to an equilibrium state that shows under the influence of perturbations a nonlinear threshold-like behavior. Here, we extend this concept by demonstrating how periodic orbits can exhibit a specific form of excitable behavior where the nonlinear threshold-like response appears only after perturbations applied within a certain part of the periodic orbit, i.e., the excitability happens to be phase-sensitive. As a paradigmatic example of this concept, we employ the classical FitzHugh-Nagumo system. The relaxation oscillations, appearing in the oscillatory regime of this system, turn out to exhibit a phase-sensitive nonlinear threshold-like response to perturbations, which can be explained by the nonlinear behavior in the vicinity of the canard trajectory. Triggering the phase-sensitive excitability of the relaxation oscillations by noise, we find a characteristic non-monotone dependence of the mean spiking rate of the relaxation oscillation on the noise level. We explain this non-monotone dependence as a result of an interplay of two competing effects of the increasing noise: the growing efficiency of the excitation and the degradation of the nonlinear response.
