Worth Remembering: Surprise-Gated Robot Episodic Memory
Nicolas Gorlo, Derek K. Wise, Alberto Speranzon +1
Robots solving generalist tasks need to be able to ground instructions in their past experience, since humans may refer to notable past events when giving a task (e.g., ``Take me t…
Disc Game Dynamics: A Latent Space Perspective on Selection and Learning in Games
Pablo Lechon-Alonso, Andrew Dennehy, Ruizheng Bai +5
Evolutionary game theory studies populations that change in response to an underlying game. Often, the functional form relating outcome to player attributes or strategy is complex,…
How not to factor a miracle
Derek K. Wise
Wigner's famous and influential claim that mathematics is "unreasonably effective" in physics is founded on unreasonable assumptions about the nature of mathematics and its indepen…
Hopf algebra gauge theory on a ribbon graph
Catherine Meusburger, Derek K. Wise
We generalise gauge theory on a graph so that the gauge group becomes a finite-dimensional ribbon Hopf algebra, the graph becomes a ribbon graph, and gauge-theoretic concepts such…
Geometrodynamics and Lorentz symmetry
Derek K. Wise
We study the dynamics of gauge theory and general relativity using fields of local observers, thus maintaining local Lorentz symmetry despite a space/time splitting of fields. We s…
Holographic Special Relativity
Derek K. Wise
We reinterpret special relativity, or more precisely its de Sitter deformation, in terms of 3d conformal geometry, as opposed to (3+1)d spacetime geometry. An inertial observer, us…
