VERSES AI Inc. (CBOE:VERS) (OTCQX:VRSSF) ("VERSES'' or the
"Company”), a cognitive computing company specializing in the next
generation of artificial intelligence announces an agreement as
exclusive corporate sponsor of the 4th International Workshop on
Active Inference.
Active Inference, first developed by VERSES Chief Scientist,
Karl Friston, is increasingly recognized as a potentially superior
approach to AI development that represents a radical departure from
conventional machine learning. Additionally, Verses’ foundational
platform KOSM™ positions the company as a leader in the use of
active inference principles in the development of AI. For example,
VERSES’ WayFinder™ suite of services and applications use dynamic
AI routing to improve logistics productivity in the logistics
industry.
The 4th International Workshop on Active Inference (IWAI), which
is to be held September 13-15, 2023 at St Peter's Abbey, in Ghent,
Belgium, brings together researchers on active inference from
around the world. In addition to VERSES AI, serving as Presenting
Sponsor; Flanders AI Research Program, Interuniversity
Microelectronics Center (IMEC), Internet & Data Lab (IDLab) and
Ghent University are all IWAI supporting sponsors.
“We are very pleased to support the 4th International Workshop
on Active Inference,” said Gabriel René, Founder and CEO of VERSES.
“This is the only event in the world that brings together both the
top researchers in the field and presents the most noteworthy
publications that explore real-world applications in artificial
intelligence.”
Keynotes include Tetsuya Ogata, Professor with the Faculty of
Science and Engineering, at Waseda University, and a
Joint-appointed Fellow with the Artificial Intelligence Research
Center, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and
Technology, Tokyo; Antonella Maselli, of the Institute of Cognitive
Sciences and Technology, at the Italia National Research Council of
Italy; and the aforementioned Karl Friston, a neuroscientist and
theoretician at University College London who is the key architect
of the free energy principle and active inference and VERSES’ Chief
Scientist.
The IWAI will also recognize a number of accepted papers that
include: Designing explainable artificial intelligence with active
inference: A framework for transparent introspection and
decision-making written by several VERSES staff including Mahault
Albarracin, Director of Product; Ines Hipolito, AI Ethicist; Safae
Essafi-Tremblay, Senior Grant Manager and Researcher; Jason Fox
Chief Technology Officer; Gabriel René, Founder and CEO; Maxwell
Ramstead, Senior Director of Research; and Karl Friston Chief
Scientist. For more information about IWAI 2023 visit

IWAI 2023The 4th International Workshop on
Active Inference wants to bring together researchers on active
inference as well as related research fields in order to discuss
current trends, novel results and real-world applications. We have
an interest in exploring the extent to which active inference can
be used in modern machine learning settings, such as in hybrid
setups combining it with deep learning, as well as to unify the
latest psychological and neurological insights, and to determine
how it can best be used to understand action, optimization and
decision making.
