An information integration theory of consciousness [PDF]
BMC Neuroscience, 2004 Abstract Background Consciousness poses two main problems. The first is understanding the conditions that determine to what extent a system has conscious experience. For instance, why is our consciousness generated by certain parts of our brain, such as the thalamocortical system, and not by ...

On the Operational Utility of Measures of Multichannel EEGs
Entropy, 2021 Multichannel EEGs were obtained from healthy participants in the eyes-closed no-task condition and in the eyes-open condition (where the alpha component is typically abolished).

Why Can the Brain (and Not a Computer) Make Sense of the Liar Paradox?
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Ordinary computing machines prohibit self-reference because it leads to logical inconsistencies and undecidability. In contrast, the human mind can understand self-referential statements without necessitating physically impossible brain states.

Mechanism Integrated Information
, 2021 The Integrated Information Theory (IIT) of consciousness starts from essential phenomenological properties, which are then translated into postulates that any physical system must satisfy in order to specify the physical substrate of consciousness.

Is Consciousness Computable? Quantifying Integrated Information Using Algorithmic Information Theory [PDF]
, 2014 In this article we review Tononi’s (2008) theory of consciousness as integrated information. We argue that previous formalizations of integrated information (e.g. Griffith, 2014) depend on information loss.

On the axiomatic foundations of the integrated information theory of consciousness. [PDF]
Neurosci Conscious, 2018 The integrated information theory (IIT) is one of the most influential scientific theories of consciousness. It functions as a guiding framework for a great deal of research into the neural basis of consciousness and for attempts to develop a consciousness meter.

Integrated information theory in complex neural systems [PDF]
, 2022 This thesis concerns Integrated Information Theory (IIT), a branch of information theory aimed at providing a fundamental theory of consciousness. At its core, lie two powerful intuitions: • That a system that is somehow more than the sum of its parts

The Informational Mind and the Information Integration Theory of Consciousness [PDF]
International Journal of Machine Consciousness, 2014 According to Aleksander and Morton’s informational mind hypothesis, conscious minds are state structures that are created through iconic learning. Distributed representations of colors, edges, objects, etc. are linked with proprioceptive and motor information to generate the awareness of an out-there world.
