Abstract

When all's said and done, more is said than done. (Anon.)The main purposes of this review are to set out for neuroscientists one possible approach to the problem of consciousness and to describe the relevant ongoing experimental work.We have not attempted an exhaustive review of other approaches. Clearing the GroundWe assume that when people talk about 'consciousness', there is something to be explained.While most neuroscientists acknowledge that consciousness exists, and that at present it is something of a mystery, most of them do not attempt to study it, mainly for one of two reasons: Visual ConsciousnessHow can one approach consciousness in a scientific manner?Consciousness takes many forms, but for an initial scientific attack it usually pays to concentrate on the form that appears easiest to study.We chose visual consciousness rather than other forms, because humans are very visual animals and our visual percepts are especially vivid and rich in information.In addition, the visual input is often highly structured yet easy to control.The visual system has another advantage.There are many experiments that, for ethical reasons, cannot be done on humans but can be done on animals.Fortunately, the visual system of

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
