Lateral Information Processing by Spiking Neurons: A Theoretical Model of the Neural Correlate of Consciousness
Cognitive brain functions, for example, sensory perception, motor control and learning, are understood as computation by axonal-dendritic chemical synapses in networks of integrate-and-fire neurons. Cognitive brain functions may occur either consciously or nonconsciously (on “autopilot”). Conscious...
