From the Phenomenology to the Mechanisms of Consciousness: Integrated Information Theory 3.0
PLoS Comput. Biol., 2014 This paper presents Integrated Information Theory (IIT) of consciousness 3.0, which incorporates several advances over previous formulations. IIT starts from phenomenological axioms: information says that each experience is specific – it is what it is by

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disease affecting motor neurons. Individuals with SMA experience mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of an antioxidant and neuroprotective substance, ergothioneine (ERGO), on an SMNΔ7 mouse model of SMA.

Information Theory and Cognition: A Review
Entropy, 2018 We examine how information theory has been used to study cognition over the last seven decades. After an initial burst of activity in the 1950s, the backlash that followed stopped most work in this area. The last couple of decades has seen both a revival

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Information Geometry and Evolutionary Game Theory [PDF]
, 2009 The Shahshahani geometry of evolutionary game theory is realized as the information geometry of the simplex, deriving from the Fisher information metric of the manifold of categorical probability distributions.

Natural Metric for Quantum Information Theory
, 2009 We study in detail a very natural metric for quantum states. This new proposal has two basic ingredients: entropy and purification. The metric for two mixed states is defined as the square root of the entropy of the average of representative ...

Profit-Driven Adaptive Moving Targets Search with UAV Swarms
Sensors, 2019 This paper presents a novel distributed algorithm for a moving targets search with a team of cooperative unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). UAVs sense targets using on-board sensors and the information can be shared with teammates within a communication ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...
