Toward A Multiscale Account of Trust Open
Trust is a coordinating mechanism for much of the natural world; however, accounts of trust are largely confined to the individual human scale. We outline an account of trust that is applicable to human and non-human agents at individual a…

Small steps for mankind: Modeling the emergence of cumulative culture from joint active inference communication Open
Although the increase in the use of dynamical modeling in the literature on cultural evolution makes current models more mathematically sophisticated, these models have yet to be tested or validated. This paper provides a testable deep act…

H-AMR: A New GPU-accelerated GRMHD Code for Exascale Computing with 3D Adaptive Mesh Refinement and Local Adaptive Time Stepping Open
General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations have revolutionized our understanding of black hole accretion. Here, we present a GPU-accelerated GRMHD code H-AMR with multifaceted optimizations that, collectively, accelerate …

On religious practices as multiscale active inference: Certainties emerging from recurrent interactions within and across individuals and groups Open
This chapter takes inspiration from Wittgenstein’s thinking to formulate a non-reductive toolbox associated with generative modelling, specifically as applied in complex adaptive systems theory. It converges on a communal perspective on re…

I overthink—Therefore I am not: An active inference account of altered sense of self and agency in depersonalisation disorder Open
This paper considers the phenomenology of depersonalisation disorder, in relation to predictive processing and its associated pathophysiology. To do this, we first establish a few mechanistic tenets of predictive processing that are necess…

Towards a computational phenomenology of mental action: modelling meta-awareness and attentional control with deep parametric active inference Open
Meta-awareness refers to the capacity to explicitly notice the current content of consciousness and has been identified as a key component for the successful control of cognitive states, such as the deliberate direction of attention. This …

Sophisticated Inference Open
Active inference offers a first principle account of sentient behavior, from which special and important cases—for example, reinforcement learning, active learning, Bayes optimal inference, Bayes optimal design—can be derived. Active infer…

From generative models to generative passages: A computational approach to (neuro)phenomenology Open
This paper presents a version of neurophenomenology based on generative modelling techniques developed in computational neuroscience and biology. We call this approach computational phenomenology because it applies methods originally devel…

Why Depressed Mood is Adaptive: A Numerical Proof of Principle for an Evolutionary Systems Theory of Depression Open
We provide a proof of principle for an evolutionary systems theory (EST) of depression. This theory suggests that normative depressive symptoms counter socioenvironmental volatility by increasing interpersonal support via social signalling…

Deeply Felt Affect: The Emergence of Valence in Deep Active Inference Open
The positive-negative axis of emotional valence has long been recognized as fundamental to adaptive behavior, but its origin and underlying function have largely eluded formal theorizing and computational modeling. Using deep active infere…

Evolutionary computation for bottom-up hypothesis generation on emotion and communication Open
Through evolutionary computation, affective models may emerge autonomously in unanticipated ways. We explored whether core affect would be leveraged through communication with conspecifics (e.g. signalling danger or foraging opportunities)…

Observational signatures of disc and jet misalignment in images of accreting black holes Open
Black hole (BH) accretion is one of nature’s most efficient energy extraction processes. When gas falls in, a significant fraction of its gravitational binding energy is either converted into radiation or flows outwards in the form of BH-d…

Towards a computational (neuro)phenomenology of mental action: modelling meta-awareness and attentional control with deep-parametric active inference Open
Metacognition refers to the capacity to access, monitor, and control aspects of one’s mental operations and is central to the human condition and experience. Disorders of metacognition are a hallmark of many psychiatric conditions and the …

Disc tearing and Bardeen–Petterson alignment in GRMHD simulations of highly tilted thin accretion discs Open
Luminous active galactic nuclei and X-ray binaries often contain geometrically thin, radiatively cooled accretion discs. According to theory, these are – in many cases – initially highly misaligned with the black hole equator. In this work…

A Phase Lag between Disk and Corona in GRMHD Simulations of Precessing Tilted Accretion Disks Open
In the course of its evolution, a black hole (BH) accretes gas from a wide range of directions. Given a random accretion event, the typical angular momentum of an accretion disc would be tilted by $\sim$60$^\circ$ relative to the BH spin. …
