意识的机器实现及相关问题

Machine Implementation of Consciousness and Some Relatives

意识研究的重要性 ,已经得到认知科学、心理学、脑神经科学等相关学科的广泛承认 ,但是关于意识是什么这一研究前题 ,还没有达成广泛共识。本文从列举和分析意识研究的特殊困难出发 ,研究意识在进化中的作用 ,意识存在的必要性及其数学根据 ,进而提出关于意识机制的机器可实现的模型 ,通过意识的机器实现解决“意识是什么 ?”这一难题。

Study on consciousness is a well-known important subject in cognitive science, psychology, brain neural science, etc., however, there is not yet a commonly accepted definition of “what is consciousness?”, which is a precondition of studying consciousness. In this paper, we start from enumerating and analyzing the special difficulties in such a study, investigate the role of consciousness in evolution, probe into the necessity of the existence of consciousness and its mathematical bases, and then propose a machine-realizable model for consciousness mechanism. Through the machine-realization of consciousness, the difficult problem of “what is consciousness?” is solved.
