The forward model used in motor control research and applied by Grus to certain philosophical problems is not to describe how a control system predicts the sensory consequences of the world. If imagery, as the act of recreating something, is to be explained by those conceptual resources derived from motor research is not better to use the term backward or inverse model: the ability convert sensory information in the appropiate motor comands.
