Main aspects of scientific theories of consciousness are characterized in sight of their possible mapping into artificial implementations. These implementations are analyzed both theoretically and functionally. Also, a novel pragmatic functional approach to machine consciousness is proposed and discussed. A set of axioms for the presence of consciousness in agents is applied to evaluate and compare the various models.text/plainapplication/pdfeng© Elsevier B.V.Machine consciousnessSituated agentsAttentionModels of mindresearch articleInformática10.1016/j.patrec.2007.09.002open access103381038Pattern Recognition Letters29
