Pseudocritical and Precritical States in Brain Dynamics

This paper identifies pseudocritical and precritical states in brain dynamics, showing that neural networks can exhibit critical-like behaviors without a true critical point.

Robust Cortical Criticality and Diverse Neural Network Dynamics Resulting from Functional Specification

The paper shows that functional specification of neural layers leads to robust criticality in leaky neuron networks, independent of external stimuli strength.

Reconciliation of theoretical and empirical brain criticality via network heterogeneity

This paper introduces a heterogeneous neural network model that reconciles discrepancies between theoretical and empirical brain criticality by incorporating synchronization effects in feedforward connectivity.
