  • Publication number: 20230111841
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a processing node in a temporal memory system that performs temporal pooling or processing by activating cells where the activation of a cell is maintained longer if the activation of the cell were previously predicted or activation on more than a certain portion of associated cells in a lower node was correctly predicted. An active cell correctly predicted to be activated or an active cell having connections to lower node active cells that were correctly predicted to become active contribute to accurate prediction, and hence, is maintained active longer than cells activated but were not previously predicted to become active. Embodiments also relate to a temporal memory system for detecting, learning, and predicting spatial patterns and temporal sequences in input data by using action information.

  • Publication number: 20160217164
    Abstract: Coordinate data is encoded as a distributed representation for processing and analysis by a machine-intelligence system such as a hierarchical temporal memory system. Input coordinates represented in coordinate space having at least one dimension are obtained. The input coordinates change over time. A corresponding region around each of the input coordinates in the coordinate space is determined. A subset of coordinates within the corresponding region for each of the input coordinates is selected. A distributed representation for each of the input coordinates reflecting the selected subset of coordinates for each of the input coordinates is generated. The distributed representation may be provided to one or more processing nodes for detection of temporal sequences and spatial patterns. Based on discrepancies between predicted coordinate data and actual coordinate data, anomalies may be detected.

  • Publication number: 20150205822
    Abstract: A method for contact management comprises retrieving, using a mobile electronic device of a user, contact information from multiple external sources. The method next comprises storing said contact information in a memory location of said mobile electronic device. Next, the method comprises determining with a computer processor whether contact information from a portion of said multiple sources at least partially overlaps with contact information from a remainder of said multiple sources. The method next comprises either merging the contact information to generate a consolidated contact record or splitting the contact information to generate split contact records based on the determining the overlap. And then the method comprises storing said consolidated contact record or split contact records in a memory location of said mobile electronic device.
