Anticipation, an Optimisation Principle for Cognition

p. 110-122

Résumé

Is cognition possible without a priori assumptions ? Many philosophers and physicists claim that a reference frame for the ordering of the measurements is needed, before cognition can start. Our objective is to reduce the a priori assumptions and to deduce a reference frame directly from empirical data with an Anticipation Principle: Put the measurements in such an order that the credibility of your forecasts will be maximised. The structure of space and time, obtained with this principle provides an explication for some phenomena of quantum mechanics
