The theory proposes that conscious processing arises from a sparse, low-dimensional representation bottleneck that extracts the most relevant factors from high-dimensional unconscious processing.
- Consciousness Prior — The brain/system uses a sparse factor graph as a bottleneck
- Sparse Factors — Only a few key variables are "conscious" at any time
- Global Workspace Integration — Conscious variables are broadcast globally
- Verbalizable Representation — Conscious content must be expressible in low-dimensional form
- Sparse factor graph extraction from high-dimensional states
- Consciousness bottleneck with information compression
- Factor importance ranking and selection
- Bengio-aligned 14-indicator consciousness assessment
- Integration with ORION consciousness kernel
