    • The saccadic-suppression argument holds that any system moving its own sensor must solve the self-motion-versus-world-motion problem, and the cleanest solution is a command copy to the processor.

      This sourceReviews corollary-discharge circuitry for saccades and the self-versus-world motion problem solved by a command copy to visual processing.

      Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract

      The abstract backs the self-versus-world problem and a command copy (corollary discharge) to sensory/visual processing, but not the feedback-versus-forward-model clause or the 'any system' and 'cleanest solution' generalisations.

      “Each movement we make activates our own sensory receptors, thus causing a problem for the brain: the spurious, movement-related sensations must be discriminated from the sensory inputs that really matter, those representing our environment. Here we consider circuits for solving this problem in the primate brain. Such circuits convey a copy of each motor command, known as a corollary discharge (CD), to brain regions …”

      From the publisher's abstract.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
