Novelty (Information gain about parameters)

Expected KL divergence between updated and current posterior over model parameters.

Neighborhood — ranked by edge-count

concept

Intrinsic Value (Epistemic value)
associated_with
Value derived from information gain; comprises salience and novelty.

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

Noveltyconcept0.848
New term in expected free energy representing information gain about the likelihood mapping; drives ignorance resolution
Information Gainconcept0.752
Reduction in uncertainty about hidden states or parameters, driving exploration.
Information Gain / Mutual Informationconcept0.751
The reduction in uncertainty about hidden states afforded by observing outcomes, motivating epistemic exploration.

Value of Informationconcept0.722
Economic concept related to epistemic value in expected free energy; information needed to realize rewards
The creation of morphological novelty, biological invention, artistic creation, architectural invention ... may all be understood as products of a relatively simple process of intensifying existing latent centers.claim0.716
Claim that the emergence of new forms, often considered mysterious, is explainable through repeated intensification of latent structure.
Curiosityconcept0.715
Active sampling of novel contingencies to minimize uncertainty; formalized as novelty component of expected free energy
