Abstract
Diffusion-driven instabilities with pattern formation may occur in a network of identical, regularly-spaced, and resistively-coupled cells if and only if the uncoupled cell is poised on a locally-active and stable operating point in the Edge of Chaos domain. This manuscript presents the simplest ever-reported two-cell neural network, combining together only 7 two-terminal components, namely 2 batteries, 3 resistors, and 2 volatile NbOx memristive threshold switches from NaMLab, and subject to diffusion-driven instabilities with the concurrent emergence of Turing patterns. Very remarkably, this is the first time an homogeneous cellular medium, with no other dynamic element than 2 locally-active memristors, hence the attribute all-memristor coined to address it in this paper, is found to support complex phenomena. The destabilization of the homogeneous solution occurs in this second-order two-cell array if and only if the uncoupled cell circuit parameters are chosen from the Edge of Chaos domain. A deep circuit- and system-theoretic investigation, including linearization analysis and phase portrait investigation, provides a comprehensive picture for the local and global dynamics of the bio-inspired network, revealing how a theory-assisted approach may guide circuit design with inherently non-linear memristive devices.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
