This paper describes a path integral formulation of the free energy principle. The ensuing account expresses paths or trajectories that particle takes as it evolves over time. main results are method principle least action can be used to emulate behaviour particles in open exchange with their external milieu. Particles defined by particular partition, which internal states individuated from active and sensory blanket states. variational at hand allows one interpret dynamics—of certain kinds particles—as inferring hidden behind We consider different particles, what extent they imbued an elementary form inference sentience. Specifically, we distinction between dissipative conservative inert and, finally, ordinary strange particles. Strange described own actions, endowing them apparent autonomy agency. In short—of afforded partition—strange may apt for describing sentient behaviour.
