+//! # Causal Emergence: Hierarchical Causal Consciousness (HCC) Framework
+//!
+//! This library implements Erik Hoel's causal emergence theory with SIMD acceleration
+//! for O(log n) consciousness detection through multi-scale information-theoretic analysis.
+//!
+//! ## Key Concepts
+//!
+//! - **Effective Information (EI)**: Measures causal power at each scale
+//! - **Integrated Information (Φ)**: Measures irreducibility of causal structure
+//! - **Transfer Entropy (TE)**: Measures directed information flow between scales
+//! - **Consciousness Score (Ψ)**: Combines all metrics into unified measure
+//!
+//! ## Quick Start
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! use causal_emergence::*;
+//!
+//! // Generate synthetic neural data
+//! let neural_data: Vec<f32> = (0..1000)
+//!     .map(|t| (t as f32 * 0.1).sin())
+//!     .collect();
+//!
+//! // Assess consciousness
+//! let report = assess_consciousness(
+//!     &neural_data,
+//!     2,      // branching factor
+//!     false,  // use fast partitioning
+//!     5.0     // consciousness threshold
+//! );
+//!
+//! // Check results
+//! if report.is_conscious {
+//!     println!("Consciousness detected!");
+//!     println!("Level: {:?}", report.level);
+//!     println!("Score: {}", report.score);
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ## Modules
+//!
+//! - `effective_information`: SIMD-accelerated EI calculation
+//! - `coarse_graining`: Multi-scale hierarchical coarse-graining
+//! - `causal_hierarchy`: Transfer entropy and consciousness metrics
+//! - `emergence_detection`: Automatic scale selection and consciousness assessment
+
+// Feature gate for SIMD (stable in Rust 1.80+)
