Propagators[edit]

Cells must support three operations:

  • add some content
  • collect the content currently accumulated
  • register a propagator to be notified when the accumulated content changes
  • When new content is added to a cell, the cell must merge the addition with the content already present. When a propagator asks for the content of a cell, the cell must deliver a complete summary of the information that has been added to it.
  • The merging of content must be commutative, associative, and idempotent. The behavior of propagators must be monotonic with respect to the lattice induced by the merge operation.

(not necessarilly very) Current Discussion[edit]

re Tononi's "Integrated Information Theory" http://www.scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=1799

(19 February 2014) starting to think about possibility for experiments (loosely) related to Visual Evoked Potential research again - for instance:

http://www.biosemi.com/publications/pdf/Bierman.pdf -- Wave function collapse

File:Schak99InstantaneousCoherenceStroopTask.pdf -- "Instantaneous EEG Coherence Analysis During the Stroop Task" -- Schack et al 1999

File:CoherentEEGAmbiguousFigureBinding.pdf -- "Coherent EEG Indicators of Cognitive Binding During Ambiguous Figure Tasks" -- Klemm, Li, and Hernandez 2000

Note these two papers flog coherence measures - not trying to focus so much on that analysis right now, more interested in general understanding of what these experiments are about with possible goal of designing simpler experiments & analysis of similar perceptual/cognitive phenomena.

Here is an article that looks more directly at visual evoked potential measures:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activation-synthesis_hypothesis
File:HobsomREMDreamProtoconsciousness.pdf

"Hobson and McCarley originally proposed in the 1970s that the differences in the waking-NREM-REM sleep cycle was the result of interactions between aminergic REM-off cells and cholinergic REM-on cells.[4] This was perceived as the activation-synthesis model, stating that brain activation during REM sleep results in synthesis of dream creation.[1][1] Hobson's five cardinal characteristics include: intense emotions, illogical content, apparent sensory impressions, uncritical acceptance of dream events, and difficulty in being remembered."
