Equilibrium Reasoners (EqR)

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

• equilibriumconcept0.726
  A state of balance among forces, creating an appearance of stasis; can be symmetrical or dynamic.
• Effect Coefficient (Eff)concept0.693
  Normalized EI bounded 0-1, decomposed into determinism minus degeneracy.
• Reasons-responsivenessconcept0.692
  The capacity to be substantively rational and respond appropriately to reasons.
• Constraints enable emergence of complexity through self-organization in far-from-equilibrium systems.claim0.685
• Any system that exists will appear to minimize free energy and therefore engage in active inference. Furthermore, this apparently inferential or mindful behaviour is (almost) inevitable.concept0.685
  Friston's key assertion resolving the tautology: existence implies free energy minimization, making inference inevitable.
• Goals and stressors are key invariants unifying cognitive systems across diverse embodiments.claim0.683
  Levin's assertion that goal-directed activity is the unifying principle across morphogenesis, behavior, and physiological allostasis.
• Thermodynamic Equilibrium (Maximum Entropy)concept0.682
  The dead inert state where all energy differences are equalized; organisms avoid this by metabolism.
• acting to optimize value and perception are two aspects of exactly the same principle; namely the minimisation of a quantity [free energy] that bounds the probability of sensory input, given a particular agent or phenotype.quote0.681
  Concise statement of the free-energy principle's unification of action and perception.
