TITLE: Generalised Hodge Conjecture
QUESTION [6 upvotes]: Further to my question, 
A Naive Question on Mixed Motives and Mixed Hodge Structures
that has received very good replies and suggestions, and I really appreciate it. I am going to ask a question on generalised Hodge conjecture which is closely related to last one. From conjecture 3.22 of Marc Levine's Mixed Motives in K-theory hand book 
https://www.uni-due.de/~bm0032/publ/MixMotKHB.pdf
it conjectures a functor from Nori's mixed motives to rational MHS,
\begin{equation}
H:\mathcal{MM}_{\text{Nori}}(k,\mathbb{Q})\rightarrow \text{MHS}_{\mathbb{Q}}
\end{equation}
is fully faithful, which could be seen as the generalisation of Hodge conjecture. My first question is why it is Nori's mixed motives that fits into this conjecture? 
If $H$ is conjectured to be fully-faithful, then (I guess) the derived functor of $H$ (by abuse of notation)
\begin{equation}
DH:D^b(\mathcal{MM}_{\text{Nori}}(k,\mathbb{Q}))\rightarrow D^b(\text{MHS}_{\mathbb{Q}})
\end{equation}
is also fully faithful. In D. Harrer's PhD thesis, Comparison of the Categories of Motives defined by Voevodsky and Nori
https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1609/1609.05516.pdf
From main theorem, 7.4.17, there exists a realization functor 
\begin{equation}
R_{\text{Nori}}: DM_{gm}(k,\mathbb{Q})\rightarrow D^b(\mathcal{MM}_{\text{Nori}}(k,\mathbb{Q}))
\end{equation}
I guess the composition of $R_{\text{Nori}}$ and $DH$
\begin{equation}
DH \circ R_{\text{Nori}}:DM_{gm}(k,\mathbb{Q}) \rightarrow D^b(\text{MHS}_{\mathbb{Q}})
\end{equation}
is the usual Hodge realisation functor of Voevodsky's motive. My second question is, is there a generalised Hodge conjecture stated using Voevodsky's category instead of Nori's mixed motive? e.g. like $DH \circ R_{\text{Nori}}$ is fully faithful? 
Any references, comments and answers will be fully faithfully appreciated!

"Why it is Nori's mixed motives that fits into this conjecture?". The usual Hodge conjecture is known to be equivalent to the full-faithfulness of the realization from pure homological motives to Hodge structures. Suppose that one sought an extension to the mixed setting, where the target is $MHS_\mathbb{Q}$. Then one would like a source which is (expected to be) abelian together with an (exact) realization functor to $MHS$. Nori's category is abelian etc. and it may be the "right" category of mixed motives, so it seems natural to use (at least to me). A side remark: Nori's Hodge conjecture is really more of an analogue rather than a strict generalization of Hodge (it doesn't imply it with unless one also assume's Grothendieck's standard conjectures or something like it).
"..then (I guess) the derived functor of H ...
is also fully faithful. " I don't think this follows or is even reasonable to expect. There are no higher $Ext$'s beyond $Ext^1$ in $MHS$, whereas there should be on the other side. Similar objections would apply to conjecturing your $DH\circ R_{Nori}$ is fully-faithful.
