Event Representations and Predictive Processing: The Role of the Midline Default Network Core

The human brain is tightly coupled to the world through its sensory-motor systems-but it also spends a lot of its metabolism talking to itself. One important function of this intrinsic activity is the establishment and updating of event models-representations of the current situation that can predictively guide perception, learning, and action control. Here, we propose that event models largely depend on the default network (DN) midline core...
