Theoretical upper bound of multiplexing in stochastic sensory receptors [PDF]
, 2022 Biological sensory receptors provide excellent examples of microscopic scale information transduction amidst stochastic noise. We argue that stochasticity is not always a hindrance to sensing. Instead, it could allow a single stochastic sensor to perform multiplexing: simultaneously transducing multiple types of environmental information to the ...
