The way to quantify emergence
Causal Emergence Community
Causal emergence and self reference
Swarma Club Reading Group Season.No1
This reading group aims to explore the relationship between causality, emergence, self-reference, integrated information theory, multi-scale, and other related topics.
Causal emergence and machine learning
Swarma Club Reading Group Season.No2
This reading group aims to sort out the relationship between causality, emergence, machine learning, information decomposition, and coarse-graining.
