Percolation and tunneling in composite materials

I Balberg, D Azulay, D Toker, O Millo - International Journal of …, 2004 - World Scientific
Classical percolation theory is concerned with the onset of geometrical connectivity and the
accompanied onset of electrical connectivity in disordered systems. It was found, however, …

Consciousness among delta waves: a paradox?

J Frohlich, D Toker, MM Monti - Brain, 2021 - academic.oup.com
A common observation in EEG research is that consciousness vanishes with the appearance
of delta (1–4 Hz) waves, particularly when those waves are high amplitude. High amplitude …

Tunneling and percolation in metal-insulator composite materials

D Toker, D Azulay, N Shimoni, I Balberg, O Millo - Physical review B, 2003 - APS
In many composites, the electrical transport takes place only by tunneling between isolated
particles. For a long time, it was quite a puzzle how, in spite of the incompatibility of tunneling …

Consciousness is supported by near-critical slow cortical electrodynamics

D Toker, I Pappas, JD Lendner… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - National Acad Sciences
Mounting evidence suggests that during conscious states, the electrodynamics of the cortex
are poised near a critical point or phase transition and that this near-critical behavior …

Individual user characteristics and information visualization: connecting the dots through eye tracking

D Toker, C Conati, B Steichen, G Carenini - proceedings of the SIGCHI …, 2013 - dl.acm.org
There is increasing evidence that users' characteristics such as cognitive abilities and personality
have an impact on the effectiveness of information visualization techniques. This paper …

[HTML][HTML] A simple method for detecting chaos in nature

D Toker, FT Sommer, M D'Esposito - Communications biology, 2020 - nature.com
Chaos, or exponential sensitivity to small perturbations, appears everywhere in nature.
Moreover, chaos is predicted to play diverse functional roles in living systems. A method for …

Towards adaptive information visualization: on the influence of user characteristics

D Toker, C Conati, G Carenini, M Haraty - User Modeling, Adaptation, and …, 2012 - Springer
The long-term goal of our research is to design information visualization systems that adapt
to the specific needs, characteristics, and context of each individual viewer. In order to …

Evaluating the impact of user characteristics and different layouts on an interactive visualization for decision making

…, E Hoque, B Steichen, D Toker - Computer Graphics …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
There is increasing evidence that user characteristics can have a significant impact on
visualization effectiveness, suggesting that visualizations could be designed to better fit each …

Neural pattern change during encoding of a narrative predicts retrospective duration estimates

O Lositsky, J Chen, D Toker, CJ Honey, M Shvartsman… - elife, 2016 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.16070.001 What mechanisms support our ability to estimate durations on the
order of minutes? Behavioral studies in humans have shown that changes in contextual …

[HTML][HTML] Mechanisms underlying disorders of consciousness: bridging gaps to move toward an integrated translational science

AI Luppi, J Cain, LRB Spindler, UJ Górska, D Toker… - Neurocritical care, 2021 - Springer
Aim In order to successfully detect, classify, prognosticate, and develop targeted therapies
for patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC), it is crucial to improve our mechanistic …
