Selective Entropic Vulnerability in a Dynamic Heirarchical Neural Network: Implications for Age‐Related Neurodegeneration

The model predicts that heteromodal cortex undergoes more thermodynamic entropy than primary sensory or unimodal cortex over time, suggesting selective vulnerability to age-related degeneration due to accumulated structural disorder from information processing demands.
