Screencast: Jeff Hawkins presents his Human Brain Project Open Day Keynote
On October 15, 2018 Jeff Hawkins gave a keynote presentation at the Human Brain Project Summit Open Day. Because we were not able to get a recording of that talk, we created a screencast of Jeff presenting the material in our office.
Jeff Hawkins at the Johns Hopkins University APL Colloquium
Jeff Hawkins gave a presentation at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab Colloquium Series where he previewed a framework for understanding how the neocortex works. Watch the video to see him introduce the framework and discuss its implications.
Key Numenta Research Discoveries
Numenta is on a mission to solve the grand scientific challenge of figuring out how the brain works. Through a focus on cortical theory, Numenta researchers have made some important discoveries that lay the foundation for a new framework for intelligence. This video explains two of those discoveries, both documented in peer-reviewed papers.
AI Singapore Meetup: The Biological Path Toward Strong AI
In this talk in an AI Singapore Meetup on HTM, Matt Taylor discusses why today’s weak AI will not produce intelligence. He talks about details of our Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) technology, such as Sparse Distributed Representations (SDRs), Spatial Pooling, Temporal Memory, and Sensorimotor Inference Theory.
Jeff Hawkins at the Simons Institute: Grid Cell-Like Mechanisms in the Neocortex
Jeff Hawkins’ Simons Institute talk is part of the Computational Theories of the Brain Workshop held on April 17, 2018. In his talk, he proposes that the neocortex learns models of objects using the same methods that the entorhinal cortex uses to map environments.
