A continuity of Markov blanket interpretations under the Free Energy Principle
Anil Seth, Tomasz Korbak, Alexander Tschantz
Bruineberg and colleagues helpfully distinguish between instrumental and ontological interpretations of Markov blankets, exposing the dangers of using the former to make claims abo…
Blankets, Heat, and Why Free Energy Has Not Illuminated the Workings of the Brain
Donald Spector, Daniel Graham
What can we hope to learn about brains from the free energy principle? In adopting the "primordial soup" physical model, Bruineberg et al. perpetuate the unsupported notion that th…
The empire strikes back: Some responses to Bruineberg and colleagues
Maxwell J. D. Ramstead
In their target paper, Bruineberg and colleagues provide us with a timely opportunity to discuss the formal constructs and philosophical implications of the free-energy principle.…
Predictions in the eye of the beholder: an active inference account of Watt governors
Manuel Baltieri, Christopher L. Buckley, Jelle Bruineberg
Active inference introduces a theory describing action-perception loops via the minimisation of variational (and expected) free energy or, under simplifying assumptions, (weighted)…
On Kalman-Bucy filters, linear quadratic control and active inference
Manuel Baltieri, Christopher L. Buckley
Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control is a framework first introduced in control theory that provides an optimal solution to linear problems of regulation in the presence of unce…
Codes, communication and cognition
Stevan Harnad
Brette (2019) criticizes the notion of neural coding because it seems to entail that neural signals need to be decoded by or for some receiver in the head. If that were so, then ne…
