#IWAI2024 family. 🧠🧠🧠🧠 Thanks so much for your research and your presence! Full house. thanks @Oxford, thanks Prof. Friston! Thanks organizers :) / and sponsors!
Best Paper 2024! 🏆 Thanks to @Entropy_MDPI for honouring our paper with this award, and to my collaborators for their great efforts. Special appreciation to the #ActiveInference community for constantly advancing our understanding of the FEP and its #AI applications.
💢5th International Conference on #ActiveInference (IWAI2024) 📷iwaiworkshop.github.io ⏰When: September 9-11, 2024 Where: Oxford University --Deadlines-- Abstract: May 24th, 2024 Submission: May 31st, 2024 Acceptance: July 14, 2024
What a way to close out 2023! 🎉 Our team at VERSES has identified an alternative path to AGI, and we believe we can get there in the next two years
Our new preprint led by the great Karl Friston, in which we explore how the structure of generative models can be learnt from data arxiv.org/abs/2311.10300
🤩NEWS! We have decided our next year 2024 venue for the International Conference on #ActiveInference: . . . . . . O X F O R D 👏
💢4th International workshop/conference on #ActiveInference (IWAI2023) has ended 🚩 -Group Picture- Thanks to all participants. Thanks to all organizers. Thanks @VERSESAI @ugent @IDLabResearch @imec_int Flanders AI Thanks Ghent 🇧🇪 Info👇 iwaiworkshop.github.io
Always a great pleasure to chat with the hosts of @MLStreetTalk—this time with Karl Friston and Chris Buckley (@drclbuckley), on the free energy principle, information and dynamics, wandering Markov blankets, historicity, ecological psychology, and the enactive approach

Our new preprint: "Bridging Cognitive Maps: a Hierarchical Active Inference Model of Spatial Alternation Tasks and the Hippocampal-Prefrontal Circuit" @thesmartrobot With Bart Dhoedt, Tim Verbelen and @GiovanniPezzulo arxiv.org/abs/2308.11463
IWAI2023 is warming up! Check the keynote speakers 📢 and the accepted papers. @antinulla @tetsuyaogata1 and Karl Friston! And register here👉 iwaiworkshop.github.io/#registration Ultra reduced price for students!😻
Excited to announce that our review paper on the free energy principle was just accepted in Physics Reports, the most prestigious journal in all of physics 🪐. This is a momentous achievement for our community🥳. Please share: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
At 2 PM (Korean time) @sFerraro1 will be presenting FOCUS, our new work on object-centric world models for robotics manipulation, which (I'm glad to say) has won the best paper award at the Robot Representations workshop #RSS2023. 🏅 Check it out at: arxiv.org/abs/2307.02427
🟢Are you a company or research inst. working in the intersection between #Neuroscience & #ArtificialIntelligence? We are looking for *sponsors* at the new standalone Int. Conf. on Active Inference (this year in Ghent, Belgium) to make student prices very affordable!
