Interoceptive inference, emotion, and the embodied self
TLDR
A predictive, inferential perspective on interoception: 'interoceptive inference' conceives of subjective feeling states (emotions) as arising from actively-inferred generative (predictive) models of the causes of interoceptive afferents.About:

"Cognitive, social, and physiological determinants of emotional state": Erratum
TL;DR: The problem of which cues, internal or external, permit a person to label and identify his own emotional state has been with us since the days that James first tendered his doctrine that "the bodily changes follow directly the perception of the exciting fact".
Journal ArticleDOI
Interoceptive predictions in the brain
TL;DR: The Embodied Predictive Interoception Coding model is introduced, which integrates an anatomical model of corticocortical connections with Bayesian active inference principles, to propose that agranular visceromotor cortices contribute to interoception by issuing interoceptive predictions.

TL;DR: Empirical support for dissociation between dimensions of interoceptive accuracy, sensibility and awareness is provided and set the context for defining how the relative balance of accuracy, Sensibility and Awareness dimensions explain cognitive, emotional and clinical associations of interOceptive ability.

The theory of constructed emotion: an active inference account of interoception and categorization.
TL;DR: This article begins with the structure and function of the brain, and from there deduce what the biological basis of emotions might be, and concludes that the answer is a brain-based, computational account called the theory of constructed emotion.

TL;DR: The fact that a gradient descent appears to be a valid description of neuronal activity means that variational free energy is a Lyapunov function for neuronal dynamics, which therefore conform to Hamilton’s principle of least action.

Cognitive effects of false heart-rate feedback.
TL;DR: Several experiments have now shown that emotional behavior is affected by the experimental manipulation of sympathetic activity, and Schachter (1964) has emphasized the importance of the cognitive effects of internal events.

Sensorimotor mismatch signals in primary visual cortex of the behaving mouse.
TL;DR: Using visual-flow feedback manipulations during locomotion in a virtual reality environment, it is found that responses in layer 2/3 of mouse primary visual cortex are strongly driven by locomotion and by mismatch between actual and expected visual feedback.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anterior Insular Cortex and Emotional Awareness
TL;DR: A model in which AIC serves two major functions: integrating bottom‐up interoceptive signals with top‐down predictions to generate a current awareness state and providing descending predictions to visceral systems that provide a point of reference for autonomic reflexes is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the other hand: dummy hands and peripersonal space.
TL;DR: This work focuses on the use of artificial dummy hands as powerful instruments to manipulate the brain's representation of hand position, peripersonal space, and of hand ownership and proposes a simple model that situates the 'rubber hand illusion' in the neurophysiological framework of multisensory hand-centred representations of space.

Does the salience network play a cardinal role in psychosis? An emerging hypothesis of insular dysfunction.
TL;DR: Evidence from imaging studies are brought together to understand the role of the salience network in schizophrenia and a model of insular dysfunction in psychosis is proposed.
