Abstract

Consciousness is variously defined and discussed in literature from different points of view such as biology, neuropsychology, etc. During last decade scientists discovered the human consciousness and proposed some models defining this phenomenon. Despite rapid advances in studies related to this area of brain research, there is no general mathematical equation which defines human consciousness in the whole brain scale. This research is devoted to study of the human consciousness as the result of human perception in order to develop some mathematical equations which are defined in macroscopic level of brain organization. The results of this research are useful not only for the fundamental understanding of human consciousness, but shall be very useful in the areas of brain research such as seizure prediction using brain signals.
