Theoretical framework models conscious processing via precision gating, providing falsifiable protocols for computational neuroscience.
This archive contains the theoretical manuscripts of the Allostatic Precision-Gated Ignition (APGI) framework — a formal computational theory of consciousness synthesizing Global Neuronal Workspace Theory (GNWT), the Free Energy Principle (FEP), and interoceptive inference. The series comprises four manuscripts (Paper 1: Framework and Thresholds; Paper 2: Liquid Networks; Paper 3: Multi-Scale Temporal Consciousness; Paper 4: Epistemic Architecture) plus companion documents (Mathematical Specification, Dynamical Formulation, Notation Appendix, Figures) and the full empirical Protocol Battery (Protocols 0–7), including the Falsification Matrix (Scenarios A–F) that specifies the conditions under which the framework would be considered disconfirmed. For the living preregistration, cryptographic data-lock manifests, and prediction registry, see the associated OSF project: https://osf.io/t5hcq. For simulation code (Euler-Maruyama integrations, FOOOF/DFA pipelines), see the associated GitHub release: https://github.com/apgiframework/apgi-framework Version 1.0. 08/23/2026
