大脑中的马尔可夫毯

Markov Blankets in the Brain

摘要:

最近的自组织系统的特征取决于马尔可夫毯的存在:一个统计边界,调解什么是内部和外部的系统之间的相互作用。我们利用这个想法,提供一个分析的分区在神经元系统。这适用于多个尺度的大脑架构,可以划分为单个神经元、大脑区域和全脑网络。这种处理是基于有效连接的经验研究中使用的典型微电路,以便直接与实际应用对话。这取决于功能单元之间的动态耦合,其形式概括了每个层次上的马尔可夫毯。以这种方式划分神经系统所提供的细微差别突出了大脑功能模块化观点的某些局限性,这些观点只考虑单一层次的描述。

英文摘要:

Recent characterisations of self-organising systems depend upon the presence of a Markov blanket: a statistical boundary that mediates the interactions between what is inside of and outside of a system. We leverage this idea to provide an analysis of partitions in neuronal systems. This is applicable to brain architectures at multiple scales, enabling partitions into single neurons, brain regions, and brain-wide networks. This treatment is based upon the canonical micro-circuitry used in empirical studies of effective connectivity, so as to speak directly to practical applications. This depends upon the dynamic coupling between functional units, whose form recapitulates that of a Markov blanket at each level. The nuance afforded by partitioning neural systems in this way highlights certain limitations of modular perspectives of brain function that only consider a single level of description.
