Active Inference: The Free Energy Principle in Mind, Brain, and Behavior

This technical monograph presents the free energy principle as a unifying framework for understanding perception, action, and learning in biological and artificial agents. Authored by key figures in the field, the book moves beyond introductory overviews to detail the mathematical and computational architecture of active inference. It explains how brains and agents minimize prediction error by treating perception and action as complementary processes of inference, rather than distinct modules.
