A new paper published in Frontiers in Neural Circuits titled, A Framework for Intelligence and Cortical Function Based on Grid Cells in the Neocortex, proposes a new way to understand how the neocortex works. Numenta’s Thousand Brains Theory of Intelligence offers significant implications for the fields of neuroscience and artificial intelligence.
Numenta • Press ReleaseIn a new research paper titled A Framework for Intelligence and Cortical Function Based on Grid Cells in the Neocortex, Numenta researchers propose a broad framework for understanding what the neocortex does and how it works. Numenta’s Thousand Brains Theory of Intelligence offers significant implications for the fields of neuroscience and artificial intelligence.
Numenta • Press ReleaseIn the Numenta Columns paper, they proposed a theory for how the brain learns models of objects through movement. The theory is an important piece of their goal to reverse-engineer the neocortex. In a blog titled “The Secret to Strong AI” on Medium, Jeff Hawkins describes the importance of the new theory to AGI.
Numenta • Press ReleaseNeuroscience and machine intelligence researchers at Numenta reveal Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM)’s results on real-time anomaly detection. They have described the technique in a new peer-reviewed paper, Unsupervised real-time anomaly detection for streaming data, published in a special issue of Neurocomputing.
Numenta • Press ReleaseNumenta’s paper, “Continuous Online Sequence Learning with an Unsupervised Neural Network Model”, looks at Numenta’s HTM vs. other machine learning techniques, including RNNs like LSTM and echo-state networks. The paper was published in MIT Press’ Neural Computation journal.
