Abstract:
Applications incorporating aspects of stochastic resonance may yet prove revolutionary in fields such as distributed sensor networks, nano-electronics, and biomedical prosthetics. This book addresses in detail various theoretical aspects of stochastic quantization, in the context of the suprathreshold stochastic resonance effect.
