Abstract
Prediction error, or a mismatch between what is expected and what occurs, is a fundamental feedback mechanism across modalities including sensory, attention, motivation, and associative learning. Identifying what has changed in our environment allows us to appropriately direct attention toward new information. In learning tasks, "surprise" - or the unexpected occurrence or omission of a biologically relevant event - is thought to act as a teaching signal that drives new learning.
