Action prediction in the cerebellum and in the parietal lobe
Abstract
The ability of the central nervous system to predict motor behaviour is a central issue in experimental and computational studies of motor control. The parietal cortex and the cerebellum have been proposed to play a role in sensorimotor prediction. Here we discuss the roles of these two brain regions in various aspects of sensorimotor prediction according to results of recent empirical studies using a variety of techniques including electrophysiology, psychophysics, functional neuroimaging and the investigation of neurological patients.

The efference copy is sent to brain areas named comparators that monitor the congruence between the efference copy and the actual sensory feedback generated by the movement.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
