cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- Empirical basis for expanding sentience frameworks; shows Crump criteria adaptable beyond traditional neurocentric definitions.
- Computational simulation modeling cells as agents with homeostatic loops interacting through stress sharing.
- The artificial agents trained with RL in this study, whose latent dynamics are analyzed for causal emergence.
- Levin's assertion that embryonic body-patterning reflects the same information-integration and goal-pursuit mechanisms as neural sensorimotor control.
- Natural living systems that have been shown to increase causal emergence after learning, motivating the cross-domain comparison.
