This paper develops a novel approach furnishing computationally tractable boundedness/stability criteria which underscores a methodology providing recursive estimation of the boundaries of the trapping/stability regions for a broad class of multidimensional and nonlinear systems with variable nonperiodic coefficients. Furthermore, our approach naturally conveys the bilateral bounds for the norms of solutions to the corresponding systems via the application of successive approximations which are introduced in this paper.

However, they have been always treated as different approaches and have not been analytically related yet. In this work, we show that Divisive Normalization can be derived from the Wilson–Cowan dynamics. Specifically, assuming that Divisive Normalization is the steady state of the Wilson–Cowan differential equations, we find that the kernel that controls neural interactions in Divisive Normalization depends on the Wilson–Cowan kernel but also depends on the signal. A standard stability analysis of a Wilson–Cowan model with the parameters obtained from our relation shows that the Divisive Normalization solution is a stable node. This stability suggests the appropriateness of our steady state assumption. The proposed theory provides a mechanistic foundation for the suggestions that have been done on the need of signal-dependent Divisive Normalization in Coen-Cagli et al. (PLoS Comput Biol 8(3):e1002405, 2012). Moreover, this theory explains the modifications that had to be introduced ad hoc in Gaussian kernels of Divisive Normalization in Martinez-Garcia et al. (Front Neurosci 13:8, 2019) to reproduce contrast responses in V1 cortex. Finally, the derived relation implies that the Wilson–Cowan dynamics also reproduce visual masking and subjective image distortion, which up to now had been explained mainly via Divisive Normalization.</p>","PeriodicalId":50111,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nonlinear Science","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139770628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a limiting case, the necessary conditions for chemotaxis-driven instability are established regarding the degree of chemotactic attraction. Spatial aggregation may occur along strong chemotaxis in a two-dimensional domain due to solution explosion.
