An Overview of the Free Energy Principle and Related Research
Neural ComputationAbstract The free energy principle and its corollary, the active inference framework, serve as theoretical foundations in the domain of neuroscience, explaining the genesis of intelligent behavior. This principle states that the processes of perception, learning, and decision making—within an agent—are all driven by the objective of ...

Free Energies and the Dissipation Principle
2011We present in this chapter an axiomatic formulation of thermodynamics in order to introduce free energies in a very general manner and to prove certain fundamental properties of these quantities. For most of the discussion, no underlying model is assumed, in contrast to the previous chapter.

The cost of over-intellectualizing the free-energy principle
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2020Abstract This commentary raises a question about the target article's proposed explanation of what goes on when we think through other minds. It highlights a tension between non-mindreading characterizations of everyday social cognition and the individualist, cognitivist assumptions that target article's explanatory proposal inherits from the ...

Information in the free energy principle of cognition
2023In dieser Arbeit gebe ich einen Überblick über das Free Energy Principle in der Kognitionswissenschaft und die zentrale Rolle, die Information in der Modellierung von Inferenz in neuroyalen Systemen spielt. Ein philosophisches Verständnis von Free Energy als Informationsmaß der Unsicherheit von Wahrnehmung verdeutlicht das erklärende Potential der ...

[The Design Principle of Allostatic Mechanisms: The Free Energy Principle].
Brain and nerve = Shinkei kenkyu no shinpo, 2023Homeostasis is maintained by neural reflex controls, which attempt to maintain the body's internal organs within a predetermined range. However, when deviations are significant, homeostasis may not be restored by these standard controls. Therefore, a function called allostasis is necessary to maximize the energy efficiency of bodily functions ...

Species of Realization and the Free Energy Principle
Australasian Journal of Philosophy, 2014This paper examines, for the first time, the relationship between realization relations and the free energy principle in cognitive neuroscience. I argue, firstly, that the free energy principle has ramifications for the wide versus narrow realization distinction: if the free energy principle is correct, then organismic realizers are insufficient for ...

The free energy principle induces intracellular compartmentalization
Biochemical and Biophysical Research CommunicationsLiving systems at all scales are compartmentalized into interacting subsystems. This paper reviews a mechanism that drives compartmentalization in generic systems at any scale. It first discusses three symmetries of generic physical interactions in a quantum-theoretic description.
