The '''memory-prediction framework''' is a theory of [[brain]] function created by [[Jeff Hawkins]] and described in his 2004 book ''[[On Intelligence]]''. This theory concerns the role of the mammalian [[neocortex]] and its associations with the [[hippocampus|hippocampi]] and the [[thalamus]] in matching sensory inputs to stored [[memory]] patterns and how this process leads to predictions of what will happen in the future.
