Abstract
Abstract
A new strategy for moving forward in the characterization of the global neuronal workspace (GNW) is proposed. According to Dehaene, Changeux, and colleagues (Dehaene, 2014, pp. 304, 312; Dehaene & Changeux, 2004, 2005), broadcasting is the main function of the GNW. However, the dynamic network properties described by recent graph theoretic GNW models are consistent with many large-scale communication processes that are different from broadcasting. We propose to apply a different graph theoretic approach, originally developed for optimizing information dissemination in communication networks, which can be used to identify the pattern of frequency and phase-specific directed functional connections that the GNW would exhibit only if it were a broadcasting network.
