In recent work with Yuri Manin, we proposed a model of neural information networks based on functorial assignments of resources to networks, originating in Segal's notion of summing functors and Gamma spaces, and a corresponding categorical form of Hopfield equations on networks.
I will review some properties and examples of such categorical framework and dynamics, and I will show how it can be applied to a form of Pareto optimization.
