Some Interesting Observations on the Free Energy Principle [PDF]
Entropy, 2021 Biehl et al. (2021) present some interesting observations on an early formulation of the free energy principle. We use these observations to scaffold a discussion of the technical arguments that underwrite the free energy principle.

Psychoanalytic psychotherapies and the free energy principle [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022 In this paper I propose a model of the fundamental components of psychoanalytic psychotherapies that I try to explicate with contemporary theories of the Bayesian brain and the Free Energy Principle (FEP).

Connecting the free energy principle with quantum cognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 2022 It appears that the free energy minimization principle conflicts with quantum cognition since the former adheres to a restricted view based on experience while the latter allows deviations from such a restricted view.

A Free Energy Principle for Biological Systems [PDF]
Entropy, 2012 This paper describes a free energy principle that tries to explain the ability of biological systems to resist a natural tendency to disorder. It appeals to circular causality of the sort found in synergetic formulations of self-organization (e.g., the ...

Emotional valence and the free-energy principle. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2013 The free-energy principle has recently been proposed as a unified Bayesian account of perception, learning and action. Despite the inextricable link between emotion and cognition, emotion has not yet been formulated under this framework.

Applying the Free Energy Principle to Complex Adaptive Systems [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 The free energy principle (FEP) is a formulation of the adaptive, belief-driven behaviour of self-organizing systems that gained prominence in the early 2000s as a unified model of the brain [...]

Minimal Self-Models and the Free Energy Principle [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 The term "minimal phenomenal selfhood" describes the basic, pre-reflective experience of being a self (Blanke & Metzinger, 2009). Theoretical accounts of the minimal self have long recognized the importance and the ambivalence of the body ...

Models of the Translation Process and the Free Energy Principle [PDF]
Entropy, 2023 Translation process research (TPR) has generated a large number of models that aim at explaining human translation processes. In this paper, I suggest an extension of the monitor model to incorporate aspects of relevance theory (RT) and to adopt the free
