| Description | This cluster of papers explores the predictive brain theory, which integrates concepts of active inference, free energy principle, and embodied cognition. It delves into the role of neural dynamics, affordances, and the enactive approach in shaping cognition. Additionally, it investigates the extension of cognition into the environment and social interactions through distributed cognition. |
