New active inference method enables efficient model learning for planning
Researchers have developed a new method for parameter learning in active inference, which frames perception, learning, and planning as variational inference. This approach uses an augmented generative model with epistem…

New AI Framework Extends Maximum Occupancy Principle for Uncertain Environments
A new research paper introduces a belief-based extension to the Maximum Occupancy Principle (MOP), a framework for intrinsic motivation in AI agents. This extension allows agents to operate in partially observable envir…

Active Inference framed as convex MDP, unifying with reinforcement learning
A new paper frames Active Inference (AIF) as a convex Markov Decision Process (MDP), suggesting a way to unify it with modern reinforcement learning (RL) techniques. The research posits that minimizing expected free ene…

New framework unifies uncertainty reduction and reward in POMDPs
Researchers have developed a new framework for Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) that directly rewards uncertainty reduction. This approach, termed minimizing Expected Free Energy (EFE), is shown t…
