Informational and Causal Architecture of Continuous-time Renewal Processes

We introduce the minimal maximally predictive models (ϵ-machines) of processes generated by certain hidden semi-Markov models. Their causal states are either discrete, mixed, or continuous random variables and causal-state transitions are described by partial differential equations. As an applicatio...
