Density × MA: A Thalamic Model for Raw Qualia as Dynamic Phase Flow

Key Points

This research aims to model the experience of qualia (sensory experiences) using dynamic phases in the thalamus.
Implemented a mathematical model in Python with version updates.
Introduced realistic sensory noise in simulations.
Utilized free energy calculations to visualize energy costs.
Developed a multi-agent mode to study intersubjective mutual recognition.
Generated figures illustrating qualia phase space with energy overlays.
Simulated multi-agent qualia trajectories demonstrating parent-child synchronization.

Abstract

Version 7. 1 (March 10, 2026) Major updates: - Added new Case Study "Intersubjective Development in Early Childhood" as Section 4. 6- New supplementary files: • ThalamicDensityMAᵥ7. 2. py (enhanced simulation code) • New figures generated by the code The mathematical predictions of this model have been implemented in Python with three major enhancements: - Realistic sensory noise- Free Energy calculation (energy cost visualization) - Multi-agent mode for intersubjective mutual recognition loop New figures: - Qualia Phase Space with Energy consumption overlay- Multi-Agent Qualia Trajectory (parent-child synchronization) Full code and figures are attached to this record.
