@incollection{Hohwy.2015, abstract = {My claim is that, if we understand the function of the brain in terms of the free energy principle, then the brain can explain the mind. Harkness discusses some objections to this claim, and proposes a cautious way of solidifying the explanatory potential of the free energy principle. In this response, I sketch a wide, diverse, and yet pleasingly Bayesian conception of scientific explanation. According to this conception, the free energy principle is already richly explanatory.}, author={Hohwy, Jakob}, title = {The Diversity of Bayesian Explanation}, url = {https://open-mind.net/papers/the-diversity-of-bayesian-explanation2014a-reply-to-dominic-l-harkness}, keywords = {Bayesian explanation, Free-energy principle, Functionalism, Mechanistic explanation, Philosophy of neuroscience, Scientific explanation, Scientific unification}, publisher = {MIND Group}, isbn = {9783958570870}, editor = {Metzinger, Thomas K. and Windt, Jennifer M.}, booktitle = {Open MIND}, chapter = {19(R)}, year = {2015}, address = {Frankfurt am Main}, doi = {10.15502/9783958570870}}
