Individual differences in theta-band oscillations in a spatial memory network revealed by electroencephalography predict rapid place learning (2021)
Journal Article
Bauer, M., Buckley, M. G., & Bast, T. (2021). Individual differences in theta-band oscillations in a spatial memory network revealed by electroencephalography predict rapid place learning. Brain and Neuroscience Advances, 5, 1-17. https://doi.org/10.1177/23982128211002725

Spatial memory has been closely related to the medial temporal lobe (MTL) and theta-oscillations are thought to play a key role. However, it remains difficult to investigate MTL activation related to spatial memory with non-invasive electrophysiologi...

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are traditionally known for signaling at the plasma membrane, but they can also signal from endosomes after internalization to control important pathophysiological processes. In spinal neurons, sustained endosomal...

Optimal feedback law recovery by gradient-augmented sparse polynomial regression (2021)
Journal Article
Azmi, B., Kalise, D., & Kunisch, K. (2021). Optimal feedback law recovery by gradient-augmented sparse polynomial regression. Journal of Machine Learning Research, 22, 1-32

A sparse regression approach for the computation of high-dimensional optimal feedback laws arising in deterministic nonlinear control is proposed. The approach exploits the control-theoretical link between Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman PDEs characterizing...
