Abstract:
:Chaotic resonance is a phenomenon that can replace the fluctuation source in stochastic resonance from additive noise to chaos. We previously developed a method to control the chaotic state for suitably generating chaotic resonance by external feedback even when the external adjustment of chaos is difficult, establishing a method named reduced region of orbit (RRO) feedback. However, a feedback signal was utilized only for dividing the merged attractor. In addition, the signal sensitivity in chaotic resonance induced by feedback signals and that of stochastic resonance by additive noise have not been compared. To merge the separated attractor, we propose a negative strength of the RRO feedback signal in a discrete neural system which is composed of excitatory and inhibitory neurons. We evaluate the features of chaotic resonance and compare it to stochastic resonance. The RRO feedback signal with negative strength can merge the separated attractor and induce chaotic resonance. We also confirm that additive noise induces stochastic resonance through attractor merging. The comparison of these resonance modalities verifies that chaotic resonance provides more applicability than stochastic resonance given its capability to handle attractor separation and merging.
