Modeling of a Neural System Based on Statistical Mechanics
Entropy, 2018 The minimization of a free energy is often regarded as the key principle in understanding how the brain works and how the brain structure forms. In particular, a statistical-mechanics-based neural network model is expected to allow one to interpret many ...

Cultured Cortical Neurons Can Perform Blind Source Separation According to the Free-Energy Principle. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2015 Blind source separation is the computation underlying the cocktail party effect--a partygoer can distinguish a particular talker's voice from the ambient noise.

Free-energy Minimization and The Dark Room Problem
Frontiers in Psychology, 2012 Recent years have seen the emergence of an important new fundamental theory of brain function. This theory brings information-theoretic, Bayesian, neuroscientific, and machine learning approaches into a single framework whose overarching principle is the

Recognition Dynamics in the Brain under the Free Energy Principle [PDF]
Neural Computation, 2018 Abstract We formulate the computational processes of perception in the framework of the principle of least action by postulating the theoretical action as a time integral of the variational free energy in the neurosciences. The free energy principle is accordingly rephrased, on autopoetic grounds, as follows: all viable organisms attempt

A Measure of Information Available for Inference
Entropy, 2018 The mutual information between the state of a neural network and the state of the external world represents the amount of information stored in the neural network that is associated with the external world.

Hierarchical disruption in the Bayesian brain: Focal epilepsy and brain networks
NeuroImage: Clinical, 2017 In this opinion paper, we describe a combined view of functional and effective brain connectivity along with the free-energy principle for investigating persistent disruptions in brain networks of patients with focal epilepsy.

Hybrid diesel generator/renewable energy system performance modeling
, 2014 Published ArticleA Hybrid Energy System may been defined as a system in which different energy sources (solar, wind, hydro, diesel generator, etc.) as well as energy storage systems are interconnected to meet the load energy demand at any time.

The Free Energy Principle and Free Markets
We apply the free energy principle to free markets by treating the Market as a random dynamical system with an attracting set, i.e., some characteristic states.
