How do neurons operate on sparse distributed representations? A mathematical theory of sparsity, neurons and active dendrites

Subutai Ahmad, Jeff Hawkins

We propose a formal mathematical model for sparse representations and active dendrites in neocortex. Our model is inspired by recent experimental findings on active dendritic proce…

Continuous online sequence learning with an unsupervised neural network model

Yuwei Cui, Subutai Ahmad, Jeff Hawkins

The ability to recognize and predict temporal sequences of sensory inputs is vital for survival in natural environments. Based on many known properties of cortical neurons, hierarc…

Why Neurons Have Thousands of Synapses, A Theory of Sequence Memory in Neocortex

Jeff Hawkins, Subutai Ahmad

Neocortical neurons have thousands of excitatory synapses. It is a mystery how neurons integrate the input from so many synapses and what kind of large-scale network behavior this…

Properties of Sparse Distributed Representations and their Application to Hierarchical Temporal Memory

Subutai Ahmad, Jeff Hawkins

Empirical evidence demonstrates that every region of the neocortex represents information using sparse activity patterns. This paper examines Sparse Distributed Representations (SD…
