The pink area in this schematic description of neural pathway is involved with bottom–up processing. The gray areas in this illustration are tentative neural pathways, in which complex top–down processing may take place. As indicated with arrows during top–down processing, there are several possible loops generating recurrent reverberations. According to Fessard (1961), it is impossible to predict exactly in which areas the signal transmission ends. The exact duration of transmission is not possible, and this case is dependent on cognitive states. It is also possible to express that the results are probabilistic and also include the unconsciousness inference of Helmholtz.
