Top-down predictions are compared with bottom-up sensory data, and mismatches evoke prediction errors. In PC, the prediction errors are encoded in layer 2\/3 pyramidal neurons of sensory cortex that feed forward. The PC model has been tested with multiple recording modalities using the global\u2013local oddball paradigm. Consistent with PC, neuroimaging studies reported prediction error responses in sensory and higher-order areas. However, recent studies of neuronal spiking suggest that genuine prediction errors emerge in prefrontal cortex (PFC). This implies that predictive processing is a more cognitive than sensory-based mechanism \u2013 an observation that challenges PC and better aligns with a framework we call predictive routing (PR).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kaitlyn M.
