Bayesian realism and structural representation.
Alex KieferJakob HohwyPublished in: The Behavioral and brain sciences (2022)
We challenge the authors' view that Markov blankets are illicitly reified when used to describe organismic boundaries. We do this both on general methodological grounds, where we appeal to a form of structural realism derived from Bayesian cognitive science to dissolve the problem, and by rebutting specific arguments in the target article.
