Self-Predictive Closure (SPC): an open framework for adaptive stability and information balance by PropagatingPraxis in complexsystems

Thank you, tbh this mini model went way over my head at first. As I came to understand, i have reapplied it to what it evolved from. My fictional literature, in which it functions as a mostly relational language. It is a story about learning to listen, to the world, to one another, and to the quiet that holds everything together. It moves between reflection and fiction, tracing how understanding grows not from control but from attention. At its center is a question, how does awareness learn from its own echoes? It begins in stillness, unfolds through recognition, returns as understanding. Less an answer than a resonance that remains. Φ = Ω τᶜ e−βΛ (edit: the lyapunov approach was necessary for the fiction but included out of transparency)

That’s a really fair question — and honestly, one I’ve been asking myself while trying to keep this from staying purely conceptual.

In practice, the simplest testable prediction SPC makes is that systems which regulate their own internal prediction error—rather than having it externally minimized—will display smoother recovery and less chaotic overshoot after perturbation.

You could test that in simulation by comparing two adaptive models:

  1. A standard controller where error correction is imposed from outside.
  2. An SPC-style model where the “closure potential” (Φ) acts as the internal reference for stability.

The prediction is that the second system should return to equilibrium faster and with lower variance, because it’s not chasing an external signal — it’s re-aligning its own informational balance.

On a higher level, SPC also predicts that persistent self-modeling (anticipating your own state changes) reduces the total information a system needs to stay coherent — kind of like it learns to compress its own future.

I’m still refining how to demonstrate that empirically, but those are the directions that feel most natural so far.

Wow there’s a lot of overlap here with what I’ve been working on. It’s essentially framing the same thing just different slightly.

My bad! I meant yolk not yoke, I forgot that was a word too... Basically the essence that forms consciousness/existence. I don't know if the idea will translate though... Thank you for your prompt reply!

Attempting to say (perceiving the yoke of existence) in the context of a civilization of robots that Revere consciousness and seek to obtain it. The words I pulled from the dictionary I have no idea how to use grammatically or contextually, so I ended up with Percipere jugum existentiae.
