Predictive coding: Works, Research, Science & Products

In neuroscience, psychology and cognitive science, predictive coding (also known as predictive processing) is a theory of brain function which postulates that the brain is constantly generating and updating a "mental model" of the environment. According to the theory, such a mental model is used to predict input signals from the senses that are then…
