The many Faces of Prediction
| ---- | Phenomena | Mechanisms |
|---|---|---|
| Perception | Visual perception | Unconscious inference (Helmholtz) Likelihood principle, determined by past experience |
| Motor response | Eye movements (guidance) | Guided past experience that internalizes statistics of the environment |
| Eye movements (cause image smear) | corollary discharge predicts movement and prevents perceiving image smear | |
| Reach and grasp | Governed by how pathway. Aided by information from what pathway | |
| Tickling yourself | Difficult because of presence of corollary discharge | |
| Language | Speech segmentation | Based on experience with the statistics of language and sentence context |
| Predicting upcoming words | Cloze probability test: some words more likely in a particular sentence. Physiology. Brain anticipates what is most probable | |
| Garden path sentences | Incorrect parsing is influenced by word meaning, context, past experience | |
| Music | Predicting timing | ”Taking up the beat” Syncopation illustrates less predictable situation |
| Predicting notes | Measured by musical cloze |
