Frontiers in Human Neuroscience August 18, 2021 Ruxandra I. Tivadar, Robert T. Knight, Athina Tzovara
The human brain has the astonishing capacity of integrating streams of sensory information from the environment and forming predictions about future events in an automatic way. Despite being initially developed for visual processing, the bulk of predictive coding research has subsequently focused on auditory processing, with the famous mismatch negativity signal as possibly the most studied...
