Toxic utopia: Unseen ideology and “Le Politique” in China Miéville's The City & The City

Circular inference in visual cortical hierarchies in schizophrenia
Aim In schizophrenia, disrupted perceptual processes contribute to positive symptoms. However, it remains unclear how top‐down priors and bottom‐up likelihoods are represented across the hierarchy of visual cortices. To identify these processes within cortical hierarchies, the circular inference model offers a framework to account for the biased ...
