We are interested in understanding how the interactions of relatively simple components at different temporal and spatial scales can lead to the observation of complex emergent phenomena.
Vocal communication
We study animal behavior, in particular, vocal communication, as an example of emergent phenomena.
Emergence of locomotion
We develop a theoretical framework to understand how the locomotion emerges from the interaction of simple contractile components.
Information transfer
We develop rigorous statistical and computational methods to infer and interpret the interaction between different components of the nervous system at several temporal and spatial scales.
Long memory processes
We study stochastic chains with unbounded memories (SCUMs) as an example of a mathematical object that can exhibit emergent phenomena like phase transition and intermittency.
