Friston recently expanded on this to suggest an inversion method for hierarchical Bayesian dynamic models and to point out that the brain, in principle, has the infrastructure needed to invert hierarchical dynamic models [6].

In a recent review, Hegde and Felleman poInted out that the “Bayesian framework is not yet a neural model. [The Bayesian] framework currently helps explaIn the computations that underlie various braIn functions, but not how the braIn implements these computations” [2]. This paper is an attempt to fill this gap by derivIng a computational model for cortical circuits based on the mathematics of Bayesian belief propagation In the context of a particular Bayesian framework called Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM).
