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.

  • Design of controllers to minimize a cost function.
  • Process of inferring causes of sensory information; unified with value learning as integral aspects of free energy minimization.

    Area in space and time an agent can survey to find alternative paths to a goal; increases with collective size.
  • A computational HOT claiming that consciousness depends on metacognitive monitoring distinguishing reliable perceptual representations from noise.
  • Anil Seth's term for perception as brain's best guess, filling gaps.
  • The process of inferring causes of sensory inputs, a key aspect of the free-energy minimization scheme.
  • Hoffman's framework showing evolution prioritizes adaptive function over veridical perception; supports view of memories as functional reinterpretations.
