主动推理为感知、学习与行动提供了统一框架,但将离散主动推理模型扩展到复杂时空域仍具挑战。尺度重构生成模型(RGM)通过在空间与时间尺度上组合离散生成模型,将低层状态与路径粗粒化为高层因果结构(如物体、事件、行为),从而解决此问题。然而,完整复现与适配该框架仍存在困难:其数学表述紧凑,参考实现深度嵌入专用软件环境,诸多算法细节未明示。本文提供一个自包含、推导导向的RGM完整解释,并公开可验证实现。我们阐明层级构建方式、信念与行为在其中的更新逻辑,以及信息在不同层级间的传递机制。当已有方程与实现侧重不一致时,我们明确说明选择并解释其建模影响。通过澄清理论并剥离其原始实现上下文,本工作降低了实际应用门槛,提升RGM的透明性、可审计性与可复现性,为未来在机器学习基准上的定量评估与开发奠定基础。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Active inference offers a unified framework for perception, learning, and action, but scaling discrete active-inference models to rich spatial and temporal domains remains difficult. Renormalising generative models (RGMs) address this challenge by composing discrete generative models across spatial and temporal scales, coarse-graining lower-level states and paths into higher-level causes for objects, events, and action. However, fully reproducing and adapting the framework remains difficult: the mathematical exposition is compact, and the reference implementations are deeply integrated within specialized software environments, leaving many algorithmic details implicit. This paper addresses these challenges by providing a self-contained, derivation-oriented account of RGMs together with an open, verified implementation. We explain how the hierarchy is built, how beliefs and actions are updated within it, and how information is passed between levels. Where the published equations and implementation differ in emphasis, we make those choices explicit and explain their modelling consequences. By clarifying the theory and separating it from its original implementation context, this work lowers practical barriers to entry and makes RGMs more transparent, auditable, and reproducible, providing a foundation for future quantitative evaluation and development on machine-learning benchmarks.
