parsimony
- parsimony
- obtaining compact and structured representations via computationally efficient means
the task is to take a sensory data sample $\boldsymbol{x}$ and represent it compactly.
\[\boldsymbol{x} \in \mathbf{R}^D \xrightarrow{f(\boldsymbol{x}, \theta)} \boldsymbol{z} \in \mathbf{R}^d\]- compression
- linearization
- sparsification
self-consistency
- self-consistency
- minimal discrepancy between the observed world and the one regenerated from the model
a broader program for intelligence
the authors look toward cybernetics, citing weiner Private or Broken Links

His motto is calculemus (latin for let us calculate). he believed in the principle of sufficient.... the philosophy of leibniz centers about two closely related concepts – that of a universal symbolism and that of a calculus of reasoning
