Macro borders versus micro borders. (A) S_m is constituted of heterogeneous logic gates: {ABCD} act identically to those described in Fig. 2, while {EF} each act as deterministic AND gates. Additionally, if {E} = 1 at t₋₁, then the probability of {A} = 1 at t increases from 0.3 to 0.9; the same rule applies for the connection from {F} to {D}. In state [000000], the set of micro elements with highest Φ is {A–F} (dotted blue line). EI of S_m in red. (B) The maximally irreducible cause–effect structure of S_m with eight concepts. (C) The complex is at the level of S_M = {α,β} (dotted blue line) and only supervenes on a subset of the micro elements {ABCD}. The highest EI of all possible coarse-grainings is shown in red. Note that EI is always over the whole system (dotted red line). (D) The macro conceptual structure has Φ^Max = 0.6.
