# Sahil Ali These are self-reported registration answers, not an assessment or a verified identity. ## Background My home-field is mathematics, currently i am enrolled into a cognitive science program. So the active inferece framework feels like a natural habitat to me or the most plausible direction for my career. ## Active Inference Application I am currently a student and studying cognitive science. So my primary concern is to use the framework to seek out interventions in domain of mental health and wellness. ## Learning Needs I think a budding community would be most helpful, since it is not a part of standard curriculum at any university so bringing people together that can think and talk and find new ways to apply what they learn is paramount. Plus the motivation. ## Provided resources Starting points supplied by the organizers; relevance and suitability have not been assessed. Generalized Notation Notation A text-based notation system for communicating generative models and Active Inference systems that provides a shared language for describing models in a human-readable and machine-processable way. https://github.com/ActiveInferenceInstitute/Generalized_Notation_Notation pymdp Community Python library implementing Active Inference for POMDPs. https://github.com/infer-actively/pymdp Active Inference Ontology Maintains and develops the public ontology for Active Inference and decentralized science with structured, machine-readable definitions. https://github.com/ActiveInferenceInstitute/Active_Inference_Ontology GEO-INFER Geospatial modeling using Active Inference and spatial data analysis techniques. https://github.com/ActiveInferenceInstitute/GEO_INFER Cognitive Agent Modeling Developing minimal cognitive agent models using Active Inference principles. https://github.com/ActiveInferenceInstitute/ActiveInferenceImplementations Reproducible publication template Manuscript infrastructure used to render this Symposium abstract book as PDF and Word documents. https://github.com/docxology/template
