Zebrafish capable of generating future state prediction error show improved active avoidance behavior in virtual reality

Using a closed-loop virtual reality system for fish, the authors show that zebrafish are capable of assigning rules to the scenery they see, and of generating a state prediction error by comparing reality with a prediction derived from an internal model.
