Published: Noise equals control.
I detail an explicit mapping between stochastic systems and control theory, showing how goal-directed behaviour arises from purely causal stochastic systems. Illustrated with stochastic resonance & Brownian ratchets

Noise equals control
Stochastic systems have a control-theoretic interpretation in which noise plays the role of control. In the weak-noise limit, relevant at low temperatures or in large populations, this leads to a prec...

I'm very excited about this virtual talk, tomorrow at 11am ET, and open to everyone! I will explain precisely how and why agency is part of Nature, and illustrate the idea with some examples from biology and beyond. No complex mathematics.
Tomorrow, Tue 24 June, join us for our monthly online seminar!
Eric De Giuli from Toronto Metropolitan University will present their work "Noise equals endogenous control" at 5pm CET / 11am ET / 8am PT
As always more information at biocontrolseminars.org
