Tensor-network theory

I have been reading about a theory of brain functioning which is called
the Tensor Network Theory.  The authors are Pellionisz and Llinas.  I came
across their ideas in two books, Matter and Consciousness by Paul Churchland
and Neurophilosophy by Patricia Churchland.  The books date from 1986 and
1988 respectively.  I would like to know how this theory has been doing for
these last years.  Is there any empirical data that has lent support to the
theory?  Has it´s applications perhaps been more on the connectionist line?

I´d appreciate any info, references etc. on recent developments in 
neuroscience concerning this theory.
