Overview
We present a tentative alignment of Active Inference terms with SUMO (Suggested Upper Merged Ontology) entities. For a subset of Active Inference terms, we identify published SUMO files likely to contain correct mappings, indicate SUMO supersets and subsets, and display relationships among identified SUMO topics. This scaffolding facilitates rigorous mapping of Active Inference to SUMO.

Findings and contributions
- The document provides a scaffolding: a tentative alignment of Active Inference terms with SUMO entities, intended to support a later rigorous mapping of Active Inference to SUMO.
- The alignment table shows, for many core Active Inference terms, SUMO areas likely to hold corresponding topics or where new topics should be created to better match Active Inference concepts.
Methods
- Tentative term-by-term alignment of Active Inference topics to SUMO entities — Built an alignment table proposing, for a subset of Active Inference Ontology terms, the SUMO files, supersets, subsets and relations likely to correspond to each topic.
- Grouping Active Inference topics into modules and core/entailed/supplemental lists — Organized topics into informal modules (e.g. Action, Bayesian Statistics, Markov Partitioning) and assigned each to one of three exposition lists.
- Structured SUMO columns: superclass/instanceOf, subclasses, domains, other relations — Situated each aligned term in SUMO via columns for more-general relations, less-general subclasses/subrelations, argument domains, and other SUMO relations.
- Flagging proposed terms absent from SUMO with an asterisk — Marked candidate terms not yet present in SUMO with an asterisk prefix (e.g. *ActiveState), indicating where new SUMO topics would be needed.
