Binding problem

The consciousness and binding problem is the problem of how objects, background, and abstract or emotional features are combined into a single experience.^[1]

The binding problem refers to the overall encoding of our brain circuits for the combination of decisions, actions, and perception. It is considered a "problem" due to the fact that no complete model exists.

The binding problem can be subdivided into the four areas of perception, neuroscience, cognitive science, and the philosophy of mind. It includes general considerations on coordination, the subjective unity of perception, and variable binding.^[2]
