We present a simple mathematical model in which a time averaged pattern emerges out of spatio-temporal chaos as a result of the collective action of chaotic fluctuations. Our evolution equation possesses spatial translational symmetry under a periodic boundary condition. Thus the spatial inhomogeneity of the statistical state arises through a spontaneous symmetry breaking. The transition from a state of homogeneous spatio-temporal chaos to one exhibiting spatial order is explained by introducing a collective viscosity which relates the averaged pattern with a correlation of the fluctuations.

This article deals with the estimation of fractal dimension of spatio-temporal patterns that are generated by numerically solving the Swift Hohenberg (SH) equation. The patterns were converted into a spatial series (analogous to time series) which we re shown to be chaotic by evaluating the largest Lyapunov exponent. We have applied several nonlinear time-series analysis techniques like Detrended fluctuation and Rescaled range on these spatial data to obtain Hurst exponent values that reveal spatial series data to be long range correlated. We have estimated fractal dimension from the Hurst and power law exponent and found the value lying between 1 and 2. The novelty of our approach lies in estimating fractal dimension using image to data conversion and spatial series analysis techniques, crucial for experimentally obtained images.
We study the spatio-temporal patterns of the proportion of influenza B out of laboratory confirmations of both influenza A and B, with data from 139 countries and regions downloaded from the FluNet compiled by the World Health Organization, from Janu ary 2006 to October 2015, excluding 2009. We restricted our analysis to 34 countries that reported more than 2000 confirmations for each of types A and B over the study period. We find that Pearsons correlation is 0.669 between effective distance from Mexico and influenza B proportion among the countries from January 2006 to October 2015. In the United States, influenza B proportion in the pre-pandemic period (2003-2008) negatively correlated with that in the post-pandemic era (2010-2015) at the regional level. Our study limitations are the country-level variations in both surveillance methods and testing policies. Influenza B proportion displayed wide variations over the study period. Our findings suggest that even after excluding 2009s data, the influenza pandemic still has an evident impact on the relative burden of the two influenza types. Future studies could examine whether there are other additional factors. This study has potential implications in prioritizing public health control measures.
We uncover a novel and robust phenomenon that causes the gradual self-replication of spatiotemporal Kerr cavity patterns in cylindrical microresonators. These patterns are inherently synchronised multi-frequency combs. Under proper conditions, the ax ially-localized nature of the patterns leads to a fundamental drift instability that induces transitions amongst patterns with a different number of rows. Self-replications, thus, result in the stepwise addition or removal of individual combs along the cylinders axis. Transitions occur in a fully reversible and, consequently, deterministic way. The phenomenon puts forward a novel paradigm for Kerr frequency comb formation and reveals important insights into the physics of multi-dimensional nonlinear patterns.
Spatio-temporal instabilities are widespread phenomena resulting from complexity and nonlinearity. In broad-area edge-emitting semiconductor lasers, the nonlinear interactions of multiple spatial modes with the active medium can result in filamentati on and spatio-temporal chaos. These instabilities degrade the laser performance and are extremely challenging to control. We demonstrate a powerful approach to suppress spatio-temporal instabilities using wave-chaotic or disordered cavities. The interference of many propagating waves with random phases in such cavities disrupts the formation of self-organized structures like filaments, resulting in stable lasing dynamics. Our method provides a general and robust scheme to prevent the formation and growth of nonlinear instabilities for a large variety of high-power lasers.
Inspired by the operation of biological brains, Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have the unique ability to detect information encoded in spatio-temporal patterns of spiking signals. Examples of data types requiring spatio-temporal processing include l ogs of time stamps, e.g., of tweets, and outputs of neural prostheses and neuromorphic sensors. In this paper, the second of a series of three review papers on SNNs, we first review models and training algorithms for the dominant approach that considers SNNs as a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and adapt learning rules based on backpropagation through time to the requirements of SNNs. In order to tackle the non-differentiability of the spiking mechanism, state-of-the-art solutions use surrogate gradients that approximate the threshold activation function with a differentiable function. Then, we describe an alternative approach that relies on probabilistic models for spiking neurons, allowing the derivation of local learning rules via stochastic estimates of the gradient. Finally, experiments are provided for neuromorphic data sets, yielding insights on accuracy and convergence under different SNN models.
