The Stochastic Resonance Program (Part 2)

guest post by David Tanzer

Last time we introduced the concept of stochastic resonance. Briefly, it’s a way that noise can amplify a signal, by giving an extra nudge that helps a system receiving that signal make the jump from one state to another. Today we’ll describe a program that demonstrates this concept. But first, check it out:

• Stochastic resonance.

No installation required! It runs as a web page which allows you to set the parameters of the model and observe the resulting output signal...
