Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Predictive coding, as proposed by the Bayesian brain hypothesis, and surrealism present an intriguing overlap. The Bayesian brain hypothesis views the brain as a probabilistic inference system that updates its beliefs based on sensory inputs, while surrealism explores the unconscious mind by challenging conventional thought and societal norms. This paper first demonstrates how the Bayesian brain hypothesis serves as a neo-surrealistic framework for understanding brain function. It then explores how the Bayesian brain hypothesis and surrealist techniques can be integrated to generate valuable insights about the human unconscious for art therapy. This convergence broadens scientific understanding by opening new avenues for research and practical applications at the intersection of neuroscience and art therapy, ultimately enhancing therapeutic outcomes for individuals seeking psychological support.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
