PG - 638-656 LID - S0893-6080(21)00279-3 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.neunet.2021.07.016 [doi] AB - In this work, we build upon the Active Inference (AIF) and Predictive Coding (PC) frameworks to propose a neural architecture comprising a generative model for sensory prediction, and a distinct generative model for motor trajectories. We highlight how sequences of sensory predictions can act as rails guiding learning, control and online adaptation of motor trajectories. We furthermore inquire the effects of bidirectional interactions between the motor and the visual modules. The architecture is tested on the control of a simulated robotic arm learning to reproduce handwritten letters. CI - Copyright (c) 2021. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
