Variational Information Maximisation for Intrinsically Motivated Reinforcement Learning (2015, background): “…on prediction errors of future states such predicted L 1 change, predicted mode change or probability gain [16], or salient event prediction [23]; and measures based on information-theoretic quantities such as predicted information gain (PIG) [14], causal entropic forces [28] or empowerment [21].”
Unsupervised Real-Time Control Through Variational Empowerment (2017, unknown): “Next, we study a ball-in-a-box environment, which has been studied in previous literature [Wissner-Gross and Freer, 2013].”
A Survey of Artificial General Intelligence Projects for Ethics, Risk, and Policy (2017, background): “Sotala and Yampolskiy (2015) review a wide range of AGI policy ideas, focusing on risk management. Much of the prior literature on AGI politics emphasizes the tension between (1) hypothetical AGI developers who want to proceed with inadequate regard for safety or ethics and (2) a community that is c”
A free energy principle for a particular physics (2019, background): “Formally, this is closely related to the notion of causal entropic forces in the modelling of adaptive behaviour in nonequilibrium systems (Wissner-Gross and Freer, 2013).”
Empowerment - an Introduction (2013, background): “If, however, one should be able to derive the MEPP from first principles, then (Wissner-Gross and Freer 2013) show that this would allow a principle to emerge on the physical (sub-biological) level which acts as a simpler proto-empowerment which shares to some extent several of the self-organizing p”
The anatomy of choice: active inference and agency (2013, background): “Indeed, the causal generation of entropic forces in nonequilibrium systems has been proposed recently as a general mechanism for adaptive behavior (Wissner-Gross and Freer, 2013).”
