Undersampled critical branching processes on small-world and random networks fail to reproduce the statistics of spike avalanches.

Undersampled critical branching processes on small-world and random networks fail to reproduce the statistics of spike avalanches.

The power-law size distributions obtained experimentally for neuronal avalanches are an important evidence of criticality in the brain. This evidence is supported by the fact that a critical branching process exhibits the same exponent [Formula: see text]. Models at criticality have been employed to...
