Slipping into Sleep: neurodynamics of alertness transitions in humans and fruit flies
… is called as ’alertness’. What happens to neurodynamics in the brain when alertness fades away as we fall asleep? How is behaviour affected? These questions will help us understand the organizing principles in the brain and functions of sleep itself. Here I use two distant animal models, …

Neurobiology of incremental speech comprehension
Understanding spoken language requires the rapid transition from perceptual processing of the auditory input through a variety of cognitive processes involved in constructing the mental representation of the message that the speaker is intending to convey. Listeners carry out these complex …

Are Associations All You Need? Overcoming the Problem of One-to-Many Association and Nonlinear Relationships with Contiguity in a Bidirectional Associative Memory Framework
This thesis investigated how mechanisms related to contiguity could help explain the link between biology and cognition through an information signal processing model. It focused on using recurrent neural associative memories, specifically, a biological and cognitively plausible Bidirectional …

Analysis of performance and robustness of biological switches: local tools for non-local dynamical phenomena.
Biological switches are frequently encountered in mathematical modeling of biological systems because binary decisions are at the core of many cellular processes. A bistable switch presents two stable steady-states, each of them corresponding to a distinct decision. These two decisions are assumed …
