Characterizing Human-Like Consciousness: An Integrative Approach
Synthesizing concepts and findings from a number of recent models of human consciousness, a unified model of the key properties characterizing human consciousness is outlined. Six key properties are emphasized: Dynamical representation of the focus of consciousness, Focusing of energetic resources and focusing of informational resources on a subset of system knowledge, Global Workspace dynamics...
متن کاملAn integrative pluralistic approach to phenomenal consciousness
We review theories and empirical research on underlying mechanisms of selfhood, awareness, and conscious experience. The mechanisms that have been identified for these phenomena are many and multifarious, lying at many levels of space and time, and complexity and abstractness.

متن کاملA computational neuroscience approach to consciousness
Simultaneous recordings from populations of neurons in the inferior temporal visual cortex show that most of the information about which stimulus was shown is available in the number of spikes (or firing rate) of each neuron, and not from stimulus-dependent synchrony, so that it is unlikely that stimulus-dependent synchrony (or indeed oscillations) is an essential aspect of visual object percep...
متن کاملConsciousness and neuroscience.
The main purposes of this review are to set out for neuroscien-tists one possible approach to the problem of consciousness and to describe the relevant ongoing experimental work. We have not attempted an exhaustive review of other approaches. We assume that when people talk about 'consciousness', there is something to be explained. While most neuroscientists acknowledge that consciousness exist...
