Dynamical aspects of Kinouchi-Copelli model: emergence of avalanches at criticality

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We analyze the behavior of bursts of neural activity in the Kinouchi-Copelli model, originally conceived to explain information processing issues in sensory systems. We show that, at a critical condition, power-law behavior emerges for the size and duration of the bursts (avalanches), with exponents experimentally observed in real biological systems.
