An Informational Parsimony Perspective on Probabilistic Symmetries
Hippolyte Charvin, Nicola Catenacci Volpi, Daniel Polani
Extraction of structure, in particular of group symmetries, is increasingly crucial to understanding and building intelligent models. In particular, some information-theoretic mode…

Towards Information Theory-Based Discovery of Equivariances
Hippolyte Charvin, Nicola Catenacci Volpi, Daniel Polani
The presence of symmetries imposes a stringent set of constraints on a system. This constrained structure allows intelligent agents interacting with such a system to drastically im…

Skilled motor control implies a low entropy of states but a high entropy of actions
Nicola Catenacci Volpi, Martin Greaves, Dari Trendafilov +3
The mastery of skills such as playing tennis or balancing an inverted pendulum implies a very accurate control of movements to achieve the task goals. Traditional accounts of skill…
