This paper provides a concise description of the free energy principle, starting from a
formulation of random dynamical systems in terms of a Langevin equation and ending with a …

Water, energy, and food have complex and dynamic interactions, forming water-energy-food
nexus (WEFN) systems with tradeoffs and synergies. To fill the gap in quantitatively …

The process of “self-organization” takes place in open and complex systems that acquire
spatio-temporal or functional structures without specific ordering instructions from the …

The evolution rate v (t) varies among diverse biosystems, but a general theory can be
formulated when the dynamics of the biosystem stater x= x (t)=(x 1, x 2, xm) T is considered …

We have written this book to address people with a profound interest in all approaches to
psychotherapy, as well as those interested in a general theory of psychotherapy. We allow …

Singing in a choir has long been known to enhance well-being and protect mental health.
Clearly, the experience of a uniquely harmonious social activity is very satisfying for the …

In this paper we argue that our comprehension of musical participation—the complex
network of interactive dynamics involved in collaborative musical experience—can benefit …

Water, energy, and food are essential and strategic resources for human well-being and
socio-economic development and form the water-energy-food (WEF) system with …

This paper starts from Schrödinger's famous question “what is life” and elucidates answers
that invoke, in particular, Friston's free energy principle and its relation to the method of …

Neural mass models are used to simulate cortical dynamics and to explain the electrical and
magnetic fields measured using electro-and magnetoencephalography. Simulations evince …
