Instability of synchronized motion in nonlocally coupled neural oscillators
, 2006 We study nonlocally coupled Hodgkin-Huxley equations with excitatory and inhibitory synaptic coupling. We investigate the linear stability of the synchronized solution, and find numerically various nonuniform oscillatory states such as chimera states ...

End to End Verification and Validation with SPIN [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Over the last several years the tools used for model checking have become more efficient and usable. This has enabled users to apply model checking to industrial-scale problems, however the task of validating the implementation of the model is usually much harder.

Observing the Environment of Technology
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, Page 423-433, March/April 2025.ABSTRACT This paper explores the conceptualisation of technology as an autopoietic system, addressing the limitations of instrumentalist, deterministic and human‐centred perspectives in understanding the relationship between technology and society. By framing technology as a self‐referential, operationally closed system, the analysis highlights its ...

Deep CT to MR Synthesis using Paired and Unpaired Data [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 MR imaging will play a very important role in radiotherapy treatment planning for segmentation of tumor volumes and organs. However, the use of MR-based radiotherapy is limited because of the high cost and the increased use of metal implants such as cardiac pacemakers and artificial joints in aging society.

Global Labour Governance by Numbers: A Comparison of the ILO and OECD
Global Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The emergence of governance by numbers (GBN) has seen the increasing use of metrics to influence government and corporate behaviour, but its uptake varies significantly across international organisations. This study examines the adoption of GBN in global labour governance at the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the Organisation for ...

A simulation model of the locomotion controllers for the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
, 2004 This paper presents a simple yet biologicallygrounded model of the C. elegans neural circuit for forward locomotive control. The model considers a limited subset of the C. elegans nervous system, within a minimal two-dimensional environment. Despite

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.Invasive and non‐invasive functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a well‐established method to partially restore function after paralysis and deliver sensory feedback after amputation. This work summarizes the current state‐of‐the‐art of FES for restoring function, supporting rehabilitation therapy, and assistive devices.
