The relationship between cognitive penetration and predictive coding
If beliefs and desires affect perception-at least in certain specified ways-then cognitive penetration occurs. Whether it occurs is a matter of controversy. Recently, some proponents of the predictive coding account of perception have claimed that the account entails that cognitive penetrations occurs. I argue that the relationship between the predictive coding account and cognitive penetration...
متن کاملCognitive Penetration and Predictive Coding: A Commentary on Lupyan
The main aim of Lupyan’s paper (this volume) is to claim that perception is cognitively penetrated and that this is consistent with the idea of perception as predictive coding. In these remarks I will focus on what Lupyan says about whether perception is cognitively penetrated, and set aside his remarks about epistemology. I have argued (2012) that perception can be cognitively penetrated and s...
متن کاملLinear Predictive Coding With Backward Adaptation and Noise Shaping
In linear predictive coding, the benefit of backward adaptation in comparison to forward adaptation of the prediction coefficients is that it allows to save bit rate since no prediction coefficients need to be transmitted from the encoder to the decoder. Also, backward adaptation yields very low complexity and algorithmic delay. Unfortunately, noise shaping techniques which have proven to enabl...
متن کاملCognitive Penetration and Attention
Zenon Pylyshyn argues that cognitively driven attentional effects do not amount to cognitive penetration of early vision because such effects occur either before or after early vision. Critics object that in fact such effects occur at all levels of perceptual processing. We argue that Pylyshyn's claim is correct-but not for the reason he emphasizes. Even if his critics are correct that attentio...
متن کاملKeynes, Uncertainty and Interest Rates
Uncertainty plays an important role in The General Theory, particularly in the theory of interest rates. Keynes did not provide a theory of uncertainty, but he did make some enlightening remarks about the direction he thought such a theory should take. I argue that some modern innovations in the theory of probability allow us to build a theory which captures these Keynesian insights. If this is...
