On the Application of PIFS-SF and Dq (f(\alpha )) to Dendrites Analysis

Zbigniew J. Grzywna, Monika Krasowska, Jacek Stolarczyk

Partitioned iterated function system-semifractals (PIFS-SF) and generalized fractal dimension (Dq) or f (\alpha) formalism to analysis of amacrine dendrites of gold fish retina has been applied. The number of codes (PIFS-SF) has been used as a measure of dendrites complexity in comparison with Dq/f (\alpha) behaviour. Some structure-functions (electrophysiological) correlations based on Dq negative part have also been shown.
