At this Ray meetup, our research engineer Michaelangelo Caporale will give one of four talks.

How Numenta is using Ray for Scaling Experiments

Inspired by the sparsity of the brain, we seek to carry over the benefits of robustness and computational efficiency by training sparse neural networks. This talk will go over, at a high level, why we care about sparsity and some of the different methods we’ve been exploring to train such networks. All the while, I’ll show how we leverage Ray to streamline and scale our experiments.
