This paper develops a Bayesian mechanics for adaptive systems. Firstly, we model the
interface between a system and its environment with a Markov blanket. This affords …

This thesis focuses on three fundamental aspects of biological systems; namely, entropy
production, Bayesian mechanics, and the free-energy principle. The contributions are …

Previously derived" global" thermodynamic speed limit theorems state that increasing the
maximum speed with which a system can evolve between two given probability distributions …

We study the multiple definitions of the entropy production for discrete-time Markov
processes in single systems and composite systems. We clarify the equivalence condition …

In this thesis, we delve into the intricate realm of collective behavior, melding the
perspectives of complex systems science with the predictive processing paradigm, and …

In the century and a half since Maxwell first conjured his “finite being” which Lord Kelvin
subsequently dubbed a “daemon”, researchers have explored the connections between non …
