Understanding the Origin of Information-Seeking Exploration in Probabilistic Objectives for Control

1 code implementation11 Mar 2021 Beren Millidge, Anil Seth, Christopher Buckley

We propose a dichotomy in the objective functions underlying adaptive behaviour between \emph{evidence} objectives, which correspond to well-known reward or utility maximizing objectives in the literature, and \emph{divergence} objectives which instead seek to minimize the divergence between the agent's expected and desired futures, and argue that this new class of divergence objectives could form the mathematical foundation for a much richer understanding of the exploratory components of adaptive and intelligent action, beyond simply greedy utility maximization.

Neural Kalman Filtering

1 code implementation19 Feb 2021 Beren Millidge, Alexander Tschantz, Anil Seth, Christopher Buckley

The Kalman filter is a fundamental filtering algorithm that fuses noisy sensory data, a previous state estimate, and a dynamics model to produce a principled estimate of the current state.
