Abstract

In humans, repeated exposure to the effects of events can lead to anticipation of these effects. This behaviour has been observed in infants from as young as 3months old. During infant experiments, the infants have been observed to predict either by pre-saccadic movements or reach actions according to the expected future outcome of the event. Event anticipation or prediction is necessary for such behaviours. In this paper we demonstrate prediction of object motion events using the adaptive learning tool Dev-PSchema. Results shows that the system is able to predict the linear motion outcome of the visual event using generalised schemas.
