Neuronal codes for predictive processing in cortical layers
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 June 2020
Abstract
Predictive processing as a computational motif of the neocortex needs to be elaborated into theories of higher cognitive functions that include simulating future behavioural outcomes. We contribute to the neuroscientific perspective of predictive processing as a foundation for the proposed representational architectures of the mind.
