arXiv:2607. 11958v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Under the free energy principle, a predictive system does not observe reality directly; it maintains a generative model of the world and experiences that model's best current hypothesis.

arXiv:2607. 16295v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability has made significant strides in understanding neural network representations, with sparse dictionary learning (SDL) methods, most prominently sparse autoencoders, as a central paradigm.

Robust and accurate neural decoders are integral to neurotechnologies such as brain-computer interfaces and closed-loop experiments. Recent work has shown that tokenizing neural data at the spike level facilitates multi-session pretraining and delivers state-of-the-art decoding performance.
arXiv:2608. 08309v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We argue that learning visual representations without labels requires a training signal jointly complete across three non-overlapping objectives: semantic invariance across augmented views, patch-level spatial prediction, and representational non-degeneracy.

arXiv:2604. 27277v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Brain MRI underpins a wide range of neuroscientific and clinical applications, yet most learning-based methods remain task-specific and require substantial labeled data.

arXiv:2607. 17782v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models pretrained using self-supervised learning have transformed computer vision by learning transferable representations from large-scale unlabeled data.

arXiv:2606. 07770v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-supervised methods that learn representations and predict dynamics fully in the latent space, such as JEPA, have been shown to confuse slowly varying noise with the dynamical signals they aim to capture.

arXiv:2607. 02460v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-training large language models (LLMs) without real-world interaction feedback or human-labeled supervision remains challenging, particularly in specialized domains where expert annotations are costly to obtain.

arXiv:2608. 00503v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predictive coding offers a powerful framework for cortical computation, yet scalable implementations that respect both Bayesian exactness and neurobiological constraints remain scarce.
