Prior Beliefs

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

• Posterior Beliefsconcept0.836
  Approximate posterior distribution over hidden states, policies, and parameters; updated by minimizing VFE
• Prior Intentionconcept0.831
  Cognitive bifurcation event where second-order contextual constraints reorganize semantic space, establishing weighted alternatives for action.
• Prior Preferencesconcept0.829
  Target distribution over states or outcomes encoded in the generative model; goal states.
• Self-Priorframework0.809
  The key novel contribution: an internal model that learns the density of familiar multisensory experiences and drives mark-removal behavior through mismatch with the free energy principle
• Prior Preferences over Outcomesconcept0.769
  Replaces explicit reward signal in active inference; encodes agent's preferred observations independent of environment.
• top-down empirical priorsconcept0.755
  Prior expectations encoded in top-down cortical signals; balance with bottom-up input modulated by precision.
• What do we communicate to each other: is this knowledge or meta-knowledge conveyed in the form of prior beliefs?question0.755
  Open question about inter-agent communication of model structure vs. parameters
