Topic: predictive control

According to a classical control-theoretic perspective on self-movement, our brains pilot our bodies to achieve goals, sometimes using open-loop predictive models and sometimes with closed-loop feedback. From this perspective, synchronization of self-motion with a moving target is a simple control problem, where error between body and target is minimized by some combination of responsive and predictive control. However, self-movement can also result from reconciliation of multisensory prediction errors. When subjected to a visual/proprioceptive conflict, our bodies respond spontaneously and un
