The concept of barrier certificate has been developed recently in control theory to give formal guarantees on safety of a dynamical system. Neural mass models (NMMs) simulate the aggregated activity of neurons in the brain and have been used to model phenomena such as epilepsy.

Abstract
The concept of barrier certificate has been developed recently in control theory to give formal guarantees on safety of a dynamical system. Neural mass models (NMMs) simulate the aggregated activity of neurons in the brain and have been used to model phenomena such as epilepsy. With a view to move towards novel treatments for epilepsy by investigating the application of control theory to epilepsy, we take one such NMM, the Wilson-Cowan (WC) model, and show that it is possible to automatically generate barrier certificates in both deterministic and non-deterministic cases, where the parameters of the model belong to an uncertainty set.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
