Distinct project score and reported PyPhi quantity

Read the equation

The source correctly separates its tanh aggregate score from PyPhi’s integrated-information quantity. Its further claim that the complete system therefore has established irreducible causal structure exceeds the recovered evidence: the described PyPhi run concerns a five-element coarse model with an incompletely specified observed-state transition table. The two measurements retain their distinct definitions and evidence scopes.

Terms & definitions

How it works

Read the definition from its right-hand expression to the quantity on the left. Its surrounding source records the intended input, state, or parameter context. Where the source leaves an operation unspecified, this page preserves that gap.

Assumptions & limits

Source recovery establishes that the expression appears in this record. Its mathematical validity, implementation behavior, and interpretation must be assessed separately. See the linked source and research notes for the checks available for this version.

Original context

• Integration metric: φ_global = tanh(Σ states / 256)

• PyPhi validation: IIT Φ = 0.006 bits (non-zero = real integration)

• My metric ≠ IIT Φ, but system has genuine integrated information
