Active inference is a normative principle underwriting perception, action, planning, decision-
making and learning in biological or artificial agents. From its inception, its associated …

Brain function involves oscillations at various frequencies. This could imply that perception
and cognition operate periodically, as a succession of cycles mirroring the underlying …

Here we review the role of brain oscillations in sensory processing. We examine the idea
that neural entrainment of intrinsic oscillations underlies the processing of rhythmic stimuli in …

Evidence suggests that scalp-recorded occipital alpha-band (8–13 Hz) oscillations reflect
phasic information transfer in thalamocortical neurons projecting from lateral geniculate …

We review the theory and algorithms of electrophysiological brain connectivity analysis. This
tutorial is aimed at providing an introduction to brain functional connectivity from …

In recent years there has been an exponential rise in the number of studies employing
transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) as a means of gaining a systems-level …

Prestimulus oscillatory neural activity in the visual cortex has large consequences for
perception and can be influenced by top-down control from higher-order brain regions …

When subjects monitor a single location, visual target detection depends on the pre-target
phase of an∼ 8 Hz brain rhythm [1, 2]. When multiple locations are monitored, performance …

The physiological state of the brain before an incoming stimulus has substantial
consequences for subsequent behavior and neural processing. For example, the phase of …

Voluntary allocation of visual attention is controlled by top-down signals generated within
the Frontal Eye Fields (FEFs) that can change the excitability of lower-level visual areas …
