  • Stance that sensory experience is mediated through internal models of the world; one of the paper's guiding philosophical stances.
  • structural realismconcept0.824
    A philosophical position that only the structure of relations is knowable; invoked to support continued self-evidencing.
  • The central question of whether representational geometry implies corresponding computational structure
  • The evolution of an agent's latent representations over the course of training, shown to align with reward improvement when causal emergence is high.
  • The desired property of a bidirectional, behavior-preserving mapping between model representations; the goal MAS pursues.
  • Cited tension in cognitive science between theories requiring mental representations and those rejecting representation as necessary.
  • Property of conscious representations: they do not contain information about the fact that they are representations at the level of the representation itself
  • Maturana's concept of continuous dynamic interaction between an organism and its environment; key to understanding living cognition.
