Information processing in brain microtubules.
Models of the mind are based on the idea that neuron microtubules can perform computation. From this point of view, information processing is the fundamental issue for understanding the brain mechanisms that produce consciousness. The cytoskeleton polymers could store and process information through their dynamic coupling mediated by mechanical energy. We analyze the problem of information tran...
متن کاملInformation processing algorithms in the brain.
If the brain is a machine that processes information, then its cognitive activity can be interpreted as a set of information processing states linking stimulus to response (i.e. as a mechanism or an algorithm). The cornerstone of this research agenda is the existence of a method to translate the measurable states of brain activity into the information processing states of a cognitive theory. He...

متن کاملEvidence for Information Processing in the Brain
Many cognitive and neuroscientists attempt to assign biological functions to brain structures. To achieve this end, scientists perform experiments that relate the physical properties of brain structures to organism-level abilities, behaviors, and environmental stimuli. Researchers make use of various measuring instruments and methodological techniques to obtain this kind of relational evidence,...
متن کاملPerspectives on Rhythm Processing In Motor Regions of the Brain
From established musicians to musically untrained children, music seems to have a universal, automatic impact on the movement of the human body. Sensing a beat in rhythm may compel some individuals to move. Through neuroimaging techniques and investigation of neurological patient groups, researchers have discovered that several movement areas of the brain respond to rhythms, whether regular, mu...
