Active inference, Bayesian optimal design, and expected utility
Noor Sajid, Lancelot Da Costa, Thomas Parr +1
Active inference, a corollary of the free energy principle, is a formal way of describing the behavior of certain kinds of random dynamical systems that have the appearance of sent…
Active Inference for Stochastic Control
Aswin Paul, Noor Sajid, Manoj Gopalkrishnan +1
Active inference has emerged as an alternative approach to control problems given its intuitive (probabilistic) formalism. However, despite its theoretical utility, computational i…
Exploration and preference satisfaction trade-off in reward-free learning
Noor Sajid, Panagiotis Tigas, Alexey Zakharov +2
Biological agents have meaningful interactions with their environment despite the absence of immediate reward signals. In such instances, the agent can learn preferred modes of beh…
Bayesian brains and the Rényi divergence
Noor Sajid, Francesco Faccio, Lancelot Da Costa +3
Under the Bayesian brain hypothesis, behavioural variations can be attributed to different priors over generative model parameters. This provides a formal explanation for why indiv…
