Project Abstract
Exploiting the chaotic principles of neural activity, the project
proposes to develop a biologically motivated coding scheme of perceptual
information based on periodic behavior, as opposed to the common one based
on equilibria, which exploits chaotic behavior for representing the
intrinsic variability of perceptual stimuli and chaos synchronization for
categorizing them into distinct internal representations. Such an aim will
be pursued by means of three research threads. The first aims at investigating the
role of the irregular oscillatory behavior of neurons in representing
imprecise knowledge. The second aims at developing biologically inspired pattern
recognition methods based on approximately periodic chaotic behavior. While
the third one aims at verifying if the periodic behavior-based stimuli coding of the
neurons manifests itself also at physiological level, in particular in the
first relay stations of the somatosensory system and the EEG signals.
