The Role of Predictions, Their Confirmation, and Reward in Maintaining the Self-Concept
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022 The predictive processing framework posits that people continuously use predictive principles when interacting with, learning from, and interpreting their surroundings.

Forecasting faces in the cortex: Comment on ‘High-level prediction signals in a low-level area of the macaque face-processing hierarchy’, by Schwiedrzik and Freiwald, Neuron (2017) [PDF]
, 2018 Although theories of predictive coding in the brain abound, we lack key pieces of neuronal data to support these theories. Recently, Schwiedrzik and Freiwald found neurophysiological evidence for predictive codes throughout the face-processing ...

The Hard Problem of Consciousness and the Free Energy Principle
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 This article applies the free energy principle to the hard problem of consciousness. After clarifying some philosophical issues concerning functionalism, it identifies the elemental form of consciousness as affect and locates its physiological mechanism (

, 2022 AbstractPredictive Process Monitoring [29] is a branch of process mining that aims at predicting the future of an ongoing (uncompleted) process execution. Typical examples of predictions of the future of an execution trace relate to the outcome of a process execution, to its completion time, or to the sequence of its future ...

The Anatomy of Inference: Generative Models and Brain Structure
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2018 To infer the causes of its sensations, the brain must call on a generative (predictive) model. This necessitates passing local messages between populations of neurons to update beliefs about hidden variables in the world beyond its sensory samples.

Top-down effects on early visual processing in humans: a predictive coding framework [PDF]
, 2011 An increasing number of human electroencephalography (EEG) studies examining the earliest component of the visual evoked potential, the so-called C1, have cast doubts on the previously prevalent notion that this component is impermeable to top-down ...
