Definition Quantum information processing theory is an alternative mathematical approach for generating theories of how an observer processes information. Typically, quantum information processing models are derived from the axiomatic principles of quantum probability theory. This probability theory may be viewed as a generalization of classic probability. Quantum information processing models ...

Background: Early diagnosis of patients in the early stages of Alzheimer's, known as mild cognitive impairment, is of great importance in the treatment of this disease. If a patient can be diagnosed at this stage, it is possible to treat or delay Alzheimer's disease. Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is very common in the process of diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. In th...

In this paper, we address the issue of how to identify appropriate mechanisms for cognitive control in a system that incorporates complex, spatial information processing to represent human-level competence. Our solution to this difficult issue is to use a cognitive architecture, which contains well-validated mechanisms for many aspects of human cognition, including cognitive control. This appro...

The human attention system helps us cope with a complex environment by supporting the selective processing of information relevant to our current goals. Understanding the perceptual, cognitive, and neural mechanisms that mediate selective attention is a core issue in cognitive neuroscience. One prominent model of selective attention, known as load theory, offers an account of how task demands d...

The positive symptoms of schizophrenia (hallucinations and delusions) are unique to the schizophrenic disorders, and are a particularly debilitating symptom of psychopathology (APA, 2000). Salience dysregulation theory attempts to explain the presence of hallucinations and delusions through the notion of augmented incentive salience, wherein irregular dopamine neurotransmission results in other...
