What Role Do Information Integration And Collective Action

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Information Integrationmethod0.760
  Integration of signals across components to compute holistic states, a hallmark of organismic individuality and basal cognition
• Integration and collective action (basal cognition) mechanisms enact the functional relationships necessary for new individuality.hypothesis0.732
  Proposes biological mechanisms implementing non-decomposable functions in developmental individuality.
• Organised structure of relationships between parts, sufficient to exhibit information integration and collective action, can be produced via fully-distributed unsupervised learning.claim0.724
  Central claim from connectionist models: complex coordination emerges without centralized control or external teacher.
• Collective Actionconcept0.718
  Coordinated behavior of multiple components required to achieve non-linearly separable outcomes.

  Chapter 6 explores whether information-theoretic models (Dretske) can ground action causation; concludes they cannot dissolve equivocation problem.
