The Dually Flat Geometry of Planning as Inference
Nikola Milosevic, Asaki Kataoka, Nicolas Hinrichs +2
We present an alternative characterization of the occupancy measure of reinforcement learning, obtained by embedding the planning criterion into the dynamics through a resetting pl…
Active Inference as a Convex Markov Decision Process
Nikola Milosevic, Nicolás Hinrichs, Nico Scherf
Active Inference (AIF) frames adaptive behavior as the minimization of expected free energy (EFE), combining epistemic and pragmatic objectives within a single variational principl…
Life as Plasmas: Autonomy and Interactivism in-materio
Nicolás Hinrichs, Mahault Albarracin, Felipe Engelberger +2
When is a material system a candidate for life at all? We argue that this question is prior to behavior, functional architecture, or computational capacity, and that at root it is…
Active Inference: A method for Phenotyping Agency in AI systems?
Philip Wilson, Axel Constant, Mahault Albarracin +4
The proliferation of agentic artificial intelligence has outpaced the conceptual tools needed to characterize agency in computational systems. Prevailing definitions mainly rely on…
The Conditions of Physical Embodiment Enable Generalization and Care
Leonardo Christov-Moore, Arthur Juliani, Alex Kiefer +7
As artificial agents enter open-ended physical environments -- eldercare, disaster response, and space missions -- they must persist under uncertainty while providing reliable care…
Geometric Hyperscanning of Affect under Active Inference
Nicolas Hinrichs, Mahault Albarracin, Dimitris Bolis +3
Second-person neuroscience holds social cognition as embodied meaning co-regulation through reciprocal interaction, modeled here as coupled active inference with affect emerging as…
