Active inference and the two-step task

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Sequential decision problems distill important challenges frequently faced by humans. Through repeated interactions with an uncertain world, unknown statistics need to be learned while balancing exploration and exploitation.

The Free Energy Principle for Perception and Action: A Deep Learning Perspective

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
The free energy principle, and its corollary active inference, constitute a bio-inspired theory that assumes biological agents act to remain in a restricted set of preferred states of the world, i.e., they minimize their free energy. Under this principle,

Active Inference, Epistemic Value, and Uncertainty in Conceptual Disorganization in First-Episode Schizophrenia.

open access: yesSchizophrenia bulletin, 2023
BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESIS Active inference has become an influential concept in psychopathology. We apply active inference to investigate conceptual disorganization in first-episode schizophrenia.

Expanding the Active Inference Landscape: More Intrinsic Motivations in the Perception-Action Loop

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2018
Active inference is an ambitious theory that treats perception, inference, and action selection of autonomous agents under the heading of a single principle.

Limits on Active-Sterile Neutrino Mixing and the Primordial Deuterium Abundance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Studies of limits on active-sterile neutrino mixing derived from big bang nucleosynthesis considerations are extended to consider the dependance of these constraints on the primordial deuterium abundance. This study is motivated by recent measurements of

Active inference and agency [PDF]

open access: yesCognitive Neuroscience, 2014
I greatly enjoyed Seth's compelling synthesis of sensorimotor contingencies and active inference. I would also like to thank Jim Hopkins for sending me the quote (below)-which speaks directly to the embodied nature of perceptual inference that underlies the perspectives reconciled in Seth (this issue).

Thoughtseeds: A Hierarchical and Agentic Framework for Investigating Thought Dynamics in Meditative States

open access: yesEntropy
The Thoughtseeds Framework introduces a novel computational approach to modeling thought dynamics in meditative states, conceptualizing thoughtseeds as dynamic attentional agents that integrate information.

Active inference on discrete state-spaces: A synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Psychology, 2020
Active inference is a normative principle underwriting perception, action, planning, decision-making and learning in biological or artificial agents. From its inception, its associated process theory has grown to incorporate complex generative models ...

An Active Inference Model of Collective Intelligence

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Collective intelligence, an emergent phenomenon in which a composite system of multiple interacting agents performs at levels greater than the sum of its parts, has long compelled research efforts in social and behavioral sciences.

Informativeness of sleep cycle features in Bayesian assessment of newborn electroencephalographic maturation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Clinical experts assess the newborn brain development by analyzing and interpreting maturity-related features in sleep EEGs. Typically, these features widely vary during the sleep hours, and their informativeness can be different in different sleep ...
