Anticipation in the "feedforward" concept
At present time, the question of the mechanisms of anticipation remains unresolved. At the same time, there are at least four theories that are covered in this article: the theory of time series, the theory of recognition by characteristics and the theory of signal, as well as the concept of feedforward proposed by Robert Rosen (Robert Rosen) in «Anticipatory Systems: Philosophical, Mathematical and Methodological Foundations» (1985). Until now, his idea to consider the mechanisms of anticipation from the position of a systematic approach and on the basis of a “direct connection” evokes scientific disputes and ambiguous interpretation. In the Russian-language scientific psychological literature, this approach is almost not consecrated. This article is devoted, among other things, to the analysis of this idea.
