Controllability and observability analyses are important prerequisite for designing suitable neural control strategy, which can help lower the efforts required to control and observe the system dynamics. First, 3-neuron motifs including the excitatory motif, the inhibitory motif, and the mixed motif are constructed to investigate the effects of single neuron and synaptic dynamics on network controllability (observability). Simulation results demonstrate that for networks with the same topological structure, the controllability (observability) of the node always changes if the properties of neurons and synaptic coupling strengths vary. Besides, the inhibitory networks are more controllable (observable) than the excitatory networks when the coupling strengths are the same. Then, the numerically determined controllability results of 3-neuron excitatory motifs are generalized to the desynchronization control of the modular motif network. The control energy and neuronal synchrony measure indexes are used to quantify the controllability of each node in the modular network. The best driver node obtained in this way is the same as the deduced one from motif analysis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008564 Membrane Potentials The voltage differences across a membrane. For cellular membranes they are computed by subtracting the voltage measured outside the membrane from the voltage measured inside the membrane. They result from differences of inside versus outside concentration of potassium, sodium, chloride, and other ions across cells' or ORGANELLES membranes. For excitable cells, the resting membrane potentials range between -30 and -100 millivolts. Physical, chemical, or electrical stimuli can make a membrane potential more negative (hyperpolarization), or less negative (depolarization).

D009415 Nerve Net A meshlike structure composed of interconnecting nerve cells that are separated at the synaptic junction or joined to one another by cytoplasmic processes. In invertebrates, for example, the nerve net allows nerve impulses to spread over a wide area of the net because synapses can pass information in any direction.

D013569 Synapses Specialized junctions at which a neuron communicates with a target cell. At classical synapses, a neuron's presynaptic terminal releases a chemical transmitter stored in synaptic vesicles which diffuses across a narrow synaptic cleft and activates receptors on the postsynaptic membrane of the target cell. The target may be a dendrite, cell body, or axon of another neuron, or a specialized region of a muscle or secretory cell. Neurons may also communicate via direct electrical coupling with ELECTRICAL SYNAPSES. Several other non-synaptic chemical or electric signal transmitting processes occur via extracellular mediated interactions. Synapse

D017711 Nonlinear Dynamics The study of systems which respond disproportionately (nonlinearly) to initial conditions or perturbing stimuli. Nonlinear systems may exhibit "chaos" which is classically characterized as sensitive dependence on initial conditions. Chaotic systems, while distinguished from more ordered periodic systems, are not random. When their behavior over time is appropriately displayed (in "phase space"), constraints are evident which are described by "strange attractors". Phase space representations of chaotic systems, or strange attractors, usually reveal fractal (FRACTALS) self-similarity across time scales. Natural, including biological, systems often display nonlinear dynamics and chaos.
