Exploration, novelty, surprise, and free energy minimization
This paper reviews recent developments under the free energy principle that introduce a normative perspective on classical economic (utilitarian) decision-making based on (active) Bayesian inference. It has been suggested that the free energy principle precludes novelty and complexity, because it assumes that biological systems-like ourselves-try to minimize the long-term average of surprise to...
متن کاملNovelty or Surprise?
Novelty and surprise play significant roles in animal behavior and in attempts to understand the neural mechanisms underlying it. They also play important roles in technology, where detecting observations that are novel or surprising is central to many applications, such as medical diagnosis, text processing, surveillance, and security. Theories of motivation, particularly of intrinsic motivati...
متن کاملA Free Energy Minimization
As submitted to Electronics Letters, except including an appendix giving pseudocode. Abstract An algorithm is derived for inferring a binary vector s given noisy observations of Asmodulo2, where A is a binary matrix. Here, the binary vector is replaced by a vector of probabilities, optimized by free energy minimization. Experiments on the inference of the state of a linear feedback shift regist...
متن کاملFree Energy Minimization
An algorithm is derived for inferring a binary vector s given noisy observations of Asmodulo2, where A is a binary matrix. The binary vector is replaced by a vector of probabilities, optimized by free energy minimization. Experiments on the inference of the state of a linear feedback shift register indicate that this algorithm supersedes Meier and Staaelbach's polynomial algorithm. (As + n) mod...
متن کاملA Free Energy Minimization Framework
This paper studies the task of inferring a binary vector s given noisy observations of the binary vector t = As modulo 2, where A is an M N binary matrix. This task arises in correlation attack on a class of stream ciphers and in the decoding of error correcting codes. The unknown binary vector is replaced by a real vector of probabilities that are optimized by variational free energy minimizat...
