Findings and contributions
- Sabine's CRR abstract reports that coherence appears to increase as the variational free energy bound decreases, proposing coherence as a proxy for uncertainty reduction.
- Montañez's abstract claims classical economic models such as Stigler's search and Simon's bounded rationality are special cases of active inference under specific conditions.
- Hinrichs's abstract presents a dyadic active inference framework for therapy linked to Forman-Ricci curvature of inter-brain hyperscanning networks.
Methods
- Edited compilation of abstracts for the Nov 12-14, 2025 symposium — Collects presenter abstracts into a DOI-registered abstract book edited by Maria Luiza Iennaco and Daniel Friedman.
- Organization by session format: keynotes, pre-recorded, panels, workshops — Abstracts are grouped by presentation format, from Karl Friston's keynote to live-streamed panels and interactive workshops.
