Active inference and agency.

چکیده

I greatly enjoyed Seth's compelling synthesis of sensorimotor contingencies and active inference. I would also like to thank Jim Hopkins for sending me the quote (below)-which speaks directly to the embodied nature of perceptual inference that underlies the perspectives reconciled in Seth (this issue). These perspectives include perception as hypothesis testing, affordance, and sensorimotor contingencies. This commentary briefly rehearses the fundaments of active inference and offers a formal basis for Seth's key argument.

The anatomy of choice: active inference and agency

This paper considers agency in the setting of embodied or active inference. In brief, we associate a sense of agency with prior beliefs about action and ask what sorts of beliefs underlie optimal behavior. In particular, we consider prior beliefs that action minimizes the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence between desired states and attainable states in the future. This allows one to formulate bo...

Controlling structures by inverse adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system and MR dampers

To control structures against wind and earthquake excitations, Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference Systems and Neural Networks are combined in this study. The control scheme consists of an ANFIS inverse model of the structure to assess the control force. Considering existing ANFIS controllers, which require a second controller to generate training data, the authors’ approach does not need anot...

CO-Active Neuro- Fuzzy Inference System Application in Supply Chain Sustainability Assessment Based on Economic, Social, Environmental, and Governance Pillars

The main aim of this study is proposing an assessment model for evaluating the supply chain sustainability across the automotive sector. In this study, through reviewing the sustainability indicators in the economic, social, environmental, and governance pillars, the fuzzy Delphi is applied. Then, survey method is used to implement the model designed in CANFIS to evaluate the sustainability ind...

Beyond the “urge to move”: objective measures for the study of agency in the post-Libet era

The investigation of human volition is a longstanding endeavor from both philosophers and researchers. Yet because of the major challenges associated with capturing voluntary movements in an ecologically relevant state in the research environment, it is only in recent years that human agency has grown as a field of cognitive neuroscience. In particular, the seminal work of Libet et al. (1983) p...

Divided Attention and Processes Underlying Sense of Agency

Sense of agency refers to the subjective feeling of controlling events through one's behavior or will. Sense of agency results from matching predictions of one's own actions with actual feedback regarding the action. Furthermore, when an action involves a cued goal, performance-based inference contributes to sense of agency. That is, if people achieve their goal, they would believe themselves t...
