This commentary explores biological models of analogical (iconic) and associative (indexical) learning in support of Illusion 1 and Illusion 4 in D. Noble’s target article. The intent is to support Noble’s theses of emergent higher level functionality from lower level stochastic dynamics and his etiological claim that “there is no privileged level of causation” through a biosemiotic lens. Upon these arguments, a case for creative agency via higher-dimensional constraints will also be made in support of Noble’s claim that organismic behavior is actively directed by an agent.

通过高维约束的创意代理

这篇评论探讨了D. Noble的目标文章中支持幻觉1和幻觉4的类比（符号）和联想（索引）学习的生物学模型。目的是通过较低级别的随机动力学来支持Noble提出的较高级别功能的这些论断，以及他的病因学主张，即通过生物符号学镜头，“没有特权级的因果关系”。基于这些论点，还将通过更高维度的约束为创意代理提供理由，以支持来宝的主张，即有机行为是由代理人主动控制的。
