Is the free-energy principle neurocentric? [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Neuroscience, 2010
Recently, a free-energy formulation of brain function was reviewed in relation to several other neurobiological theories (The freeenergy principle: a unified brain theory? Nature Rev. Neurosci. 11, 127–138 (2010))1. Fiorillo raises some interesting questions about the formulation from a neurocentric perspective (A neurocentric approach to Bayesian ...

Replicated Bethe Free Energy: A Variational Principle behind Survey Propagation

open access: yes, 2005
A scheme to provide various mean-field-type approximation algorithms is presented by employing the Bethe free energy formalism to a family of replicated systems in conjunction with analytical continuation with respect to the number of replicas.

Quantum Informational Dark Energy: Dark energy from forgetting

open access: yes, 2007
We suggest that dark energy has a quantum informational origin. Landauer's principle associated with the erasure of quantum information at a cosmic horizon implies the non-zero vacuum energy having effective negative pressure.

The Equivalence Principle of Quantum Mechanics: Uniqueness Theorem [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Recently we showed that the postulated diffeomorphic equivalence of states implies quantum mechanics. This approach takes the canonical variables to be dependent by the relation p=\partial_q S_0 and exploits a basic GL(2,C)-symmetry which underlies the ...

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Experiential fantasies, prediction, and enactive minds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A recent surge of work on prediction-driven processing models--based on Bayesian inference and representation-heavy models--suggests that the material basis of conscious experience is inferentially secluded and neurocentrically ...

Probing Mach's principle

open access: yes, 2011
The principle of least action in its original form \'a la Maupertuis is used to explain geodetic and frame-dragging precessions which are customarily accounted for a curved spacetime by general relativity.

Dynamics of liquid nanofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The van der Waals forces across a very thin liquid layer (nanofilm) in contact with a plane solid wall make the liquid nonhomogeneous. The dynamics of such flat liquid nanofilms is studied in isothermal case.
