Diffuse neural coupling mediates complex network dynamics through the formation of quasi-critical brain states

A principle of neuroanatomy, namely diffuse connectivity, is modeled using a large-scale network of corticothalamic neural masses. We demonstrate that increases in diffuse coupling transition the system through a quasi-critical regime, which coincides with known signatures of complex adaptive brain...
