#synchrony — Public Fediverse posts

Here is a direct follow-up on this, now showing how to implement #GapJunctions in a network of #spiking #neurons (#SNN) using the #NESTsimulator. We simulate a network of 500 inhibitory neurons with gap junctions and analyze the effects on #synchrony and #oscillations. The code is also available on GitHub. Feel free to modify and expand upon it 🤗

#Banking #Outage Leaves Customers Without Account Access

Updated: May 2, 2025 By Robert Farrington

Excerpt:

"Banking Grinds To A Halt

"#Fiserv supplies the infrastructure behind many major financial institutions’ digital platforms. When its systems fail, the effects cascade quickly across the financial ecosystem.

"Banks affected include major players such as #Ally, #BankOfAmerica, #TDBank, #CapitalOne, #Synchrony, and #CitizensBank, as well as #RegionalBanks and local institutions like #NorthwestBank, #SunflowerBank, and #FarmersNationalBank in Ohio. #CreditUnions such as Navy Federal. Even money transfer service #Zelle appears to be impacted.

"Customers have reported a range of issues: locked accounts, unavailable balances, non-functioning transfers, and missed direct deposits.

"One IT staffer at a bank impacted by the outage shared on Reddit, 'It's been a nightmare. ACH files, Zelle, BillPay, and more have all been impacted.'

"Fiserv has not confirmed what the cause of the incident is. According to reports, the outage allegedly appears to have originated from problems with its core processing software (DNA) and related services like Nautilus (document and content management) and Payment Exchange (real-time transfers).

"While some functionality has returned for select services, many banks are still experiencing intermittent issues as of Friday afternoon.

"We reached out to Fiserv for comment but as of publication had not heard back. As of now, Fiserv has not released a public timeline for full restoration or details of the cause of the incident.

"This incident is more than just an inconvenience - it highlights how fragile the digital banking experience can be when so many institutions rely on a single vendor.

"Fiserv supports everything from transaction processing to statement delivery. When one system fails, it's not just a front-end website that goes dark. Payments don’t go through. Payroll deposits don’t arrive. Consumers lose access to their money."

Mongolian Gerbil

They tend to synchronize 😊

#Gerbil #SmallAnimal #Synchrony #Synchronized

In sync with #music: A new #paper out in #ScientificReports
shows that audiences of #classicalconcerts resonate with the music and that #synchrony is even higher when the listeners feel moved emotionally and inspired by a piece. Great collaboration work of @unibern, Zeppelin University, Friedrichshafen, and @MPI_ae!

Very happy to have two opportunities to present our
@SoNeAtLab's (#University of #Essex, #Colchester, #UK) work on #interpersonal #neural #synchrony using #fNIRS #hyperscanning in #parent-#child #dyads and #romantic #couples during fNIRS UK 2023 next week.

Thank you 🙏🏻.

Very nice new & large #metaanalysis on #neuroimaging studies (#fMRI & #fNIRS) investigating #interpersonal #neural #synchrony (INS) in adults. Great work - congrats!

Especially great to see that there is (partial - #TPJ/#STG) overlap with our own #fNIRS #hyperscanning data looking at INS during #parent-#child interaction as part of our #CARE studies (https://pvrticka.com/attachment/care-studies/).

Aesthetics of musical timing: Culture and expertise affect preferences for isochrony but not synchrony

Have you ever thought about how your cultural background and expertise can influence your appreciation of deviations from synchrony and isochrony in music? A recent study aimed to explore this by manipulating (a)synchrony and (non-)isochrony in musical excerpts from three different styles and examining the responses of participants with varying levels of cultural familiarity and expertise. The results showed that while there was an overall preference for synchrony, preferences for deviations from isochrony were culturally contingent and dependent on expertise. This suggests that our ability to process musical timing relies on both low-level and high-level perception, and that cultural familiarity and expertise play a role in shaping our aesthetic preferences. So, the next time you listen to music, consider how your cultural background and expertise might be influencing your enjoyment of the piece.
