Biophysical Society: 51th Annual Meeting. Biophysical Journal 257A-257A Suppl. S, 2007 In normal rat kidney (NRK) fibroblasts the excitable membrane exhibits action potentials caused by an intracellular, IP3-mediated calcium oscillation (CaO). We modeled that process in detail and applied bifurcation analysis to investigate the dynamic behaviour of […]

J. J. Torres, J. M. Cortes and J. Marro. Instability of attractors in auto-associative networks with bio-inspired fast synaptic noise. Lecture Notes in Computer Science 3512: 161-167, 2005 [pdf] We studied auto–associative networks in which synapses are noisy on a time scale much shorter that the one for the neuron dynamics. In our model a presynaptic noise causes postsynaptic depression as recently observed in neurobiological systems. This results in a […]
J. M. Cortes, P. L. Garrido, H. J. Kappen, J. Marro, C. Morillas, D. Navidad and J. J. Torres. Algorithms for identification and categorization. AIP Conference Proceedings 779: 178-184, 2005 [pdf] This article reports on a series of efforts during the last decade aimed at modeling in a computer the cooperative properties that, according to some experimental evidence, could be relevant for the processing of patterns in a brain. In […]
J. Marro, J. M. Cortes and P. I. Hurtado. Modeling nonequilibrium phase transitions and critical behavior in complex systems. Computer Physics Communications 147: 115-119, 2002 [pdf] We comment on some recent, yet unpublished results concerning instabilities in complex systems and their applications. In particular, we briefly describe main observations during extensive computer simulations of two lattice nonequilibrium models. One exhibits robust and efficient processes of pattern recognition under synaptic coherent […]
