How particular is the physics of the free energy principle?

Aguilera, M.; Millidge, B.; Tschantz, A.; Buckley, C.L. (2022-03-01)

The free energy principle (FEP) states that any dynamical system can be interpreted as performing Bayesian inference upon its surrounding environment. Although, in theory, the FEP applies to a wide variety of systems, there ...

From the free energy principle to a confederation of Bayesian mechanics: Reply to comments on “How particular is the physics of the free energy principle?”

Aguilera, M.; Millidge, B.; Tschantz, A.; Buckley, C.L. (2023-03-01)

Recurrent, nonequilibrium systems and the Markov blanket assumption

Aguilera, M.; Buckley, C.L. (2022-09-29)

Markov blankets - statistical independences between system and environment - have become popular to describe the boundaries of living systems under Bayesian views of cognition. The intuition behind Markov blankets originates...

COLENGTH, MULTIPLICITY, AND IDEAL CLOSURE OPERATIONS II

Ma, L.; Pham, H.Q.; Smirnov, I. (2024-01-01)

Let (R,m) be a Noetherian local ring. This paper concerns several extremal invariants arising from the study of the relation between colength and (Hilbert–Samuel or Hilbert–Kunz) multiplicity of an m-primary ideal. We intr...
